Take Action

No matter where you are in your weaving journey – whether you are just starting or you’ve been weaving for several years – Weave’s mission is to support you and inspire others to join you.

Partner with Weave in your Community

Weave is looking for trusted organizations to bring a model of local partnerships that fosters connection and trust to 25 new locations. Each selected partner, whom we call Community Hosts, will receive seed funds of $225,000 along with tools, training, access to Weave resources, and peer support. The Host will work with other local groups and advocates to create events and distribute Awards to neighbors who are building connection. Apply by November 2, 2025.

Start by subscribing to the Weave Newsletter

Every week, we feature stories from weavers from across the country, resources to fuel your weaving, coverage of weavers in the news, events, and reflections from many perspectives on what it means to invest in relationships and weave a strong, inclusive social fabric from the ground up. The newsletter is a resource for every weaver.

Join the Weaving Us community

If you dream of weaving your community into a trusting place where everyone thrives, you are a weaver – and you are not alone. Welcome home. Welcome to the Weaving Us community. You will find weavers from all over the country willing to offer tools, resources, advice, and friendship to help you bring neighbors together to address shared needs. You’ll also find a new Learning Center to help you meet a specific goal like learning how to write a grant, prepare a presentation, or design your next gathering.

Find weaving opportunities or volunteers through the Weaver Network

In partnership with Points of Light Foundation, Weave created a search engine to find weaving opportunities where you live. The database includes thousands of opportunities all over the US that are mainly in person (local), encourage you to build bonds with others (relational), recognize that everyone has something to offer (mutual), and welcome all types of people (inclusive). If you already have an organization, you can register it here to help you find neighbors to join in your weaving efforts.

Bring a Weave Speaker to your community

Weave created the Speakers Bureau to highlight weavers who are healing divides in their communities from the ground up. Weave Speakers come from many walks of life and share their stories to inspire others to shift our culture and create belonging and connection across differences. There are currently 30 speakers in the Speakers Bureau and more are selected every year.

If outside the US, please indicate your country.
