Memberships
Why Membership Matters
Belonging is not a concept—it is a practice. It is built through intentional relationships, shared commitments, and communities willing to invest in one another. Membership in The Project on Belonging fuels a global movement to create environments where every person has the opportunity to thrive.
Your monthly support helps us:
Expand Access to Opportunity
Membership contributions directly sustain programs, research, and convenings that open doors for underrepresented leaders across the diaspora. You help create pathways that would not exist otherwise.
Build Leadership Capacity
From community roundtables to global salons, members enable us to cultivate leaders who are shaping institutions, industries, and public life. Your support helps us empower voices too often overlooked.
Strengthen a Global Network of Belonging
The Project on Belonging brings together changemakers from cities, nations, and disciplines. Membership deepens this network—connecting people committed to justice, dignity, and shared progress.
Support Independent Thought Leadership
Your contribution sustains the research, storytelling, and content that define the modern belonging movement. Together, we amplify ideas that inspire action around the world.
Keep Our Work Accessible
Belonging requires openness. Membership funding allows us to keep many programs low-cost or free, ensuring that our resources reach communities and leaders who benefit most.
A Movement Powered by People Like You
When you join as a member, you are not simply supporting a program—you are helping to shape a global culture rooted in respect, inclusion, and shared humanity. Your monthly commitment fuels the work, connects the community, and ensures that the promise of belonging becomes a lived reality for more people every day.
Join us. Your membership matters more than you know.
