One small action times everyone
Experience collective empowerment while supporting nonprofits working toward climate balance.
Thank you so much for joining this movement! Your monthly donation starting at $2 along with everyone else's will support those working toward climate balance. The donation is meant to be very small to support collective action, everyone participating equally, and to compliment and not take away from where you already donate.
This model is about working together as we will need to more and more as time goes on.

Hello! I'm Marna Widom, the founder of ONEXEVERYONE
(pronounced one (x) everyone as in one small action times everyone)
The Sustainable Living Association has been a presence in Fort Collins for many years offering our community education and leadership in all things sustainable. ONEXEVERYONE would like to give back to this organization this month and support their current work continuing to educate and support leaders in our area as well as us as individuals as we strive for climate balance in our homes, our community and the world.
Thank you!

Regarding COVID-19
It is natural to set aside focus on climate action as disasters occur yet this pandemic has offered us a unique view into how we can change our actions for a common good. The outcome has been destructive on many levels but as we re-build and reimagine our way in the world we can see more clearly than we could even a few short months ago what the possiblitlites are for collective action leading to positive change.
Thank you for holding ground and continuing on our collective path toward climate balance.

$2/month is a perfect amount!
This is how we make a different together without taking too much from any one person, how we show our children how much small actions can mean and how we can work collectively. This is an opportunity to spread our support to a number of different non-profits working toward climate balance in many incredible ways - together. You are welcome to donate any amount either in a monthly or one-time payment. Absolutely anything is appreciated by onexeveryone and those we support.

Three reasons to join this movement
|
Many of us understand there is something unprecedented happening and most of us don't feel we have the power to make enough change alone. Working together, even in this small way to begin with, can relieve a bit of the feelings of despair or powerlessness and make room for more energy to be spent on being proactive individually and to support the kinds of policy and societal changes necessary in the coming years.
|
Do you have experience with collective action? Many of us do not. Participating in onexeveryone together with many others is something that will help us begin to shift not only our belief about what is possible on a large scale, but how we look at how our individual actions (when partnered with many other people's individual actions) can make a true difference.
|
There are women and men all over the world working very hard to achieve climate balance in many different ways. The organizations they run and work for are almost always underfunded. We at onexeveryone work to find organizations we can trust and give the pooled funds to one of these organization each month spanning our support across the world.
|
We can be empowered and operate from a place of hope instead of despair.
THE CLIMATE EMERGENCY IS NOW.
We all want to know that we can make a difference.
This one simple act of giving has the potential to create widespread, positive impact.
A $2 recurring donation per month from as many people as we can reach. Together.
DONATE
If you prefer to make a one-time payment vs. a recurring donation please do! Simply choose the option that best suits your wishes.
We have an incredible opportunity to not only change the story of the climate emergency, but of how we responded when we still had the chance. We can choose how our children and grandchildren will look back at this crucial time. They will know we did everything we could to help their future.
Why is ONEXEVERYONE different?
- We all give together to affect greater change than we can individually.
- This issue encompasses almost all other issues we face.
- It makes so much sense to radically support those who are already set up to help.
We cannot leave this for the next generation.
It doesn't make sense to wait.
Why wouldn't we do everything we can while we still have a small window of opportunity to respond thoughtfully?
We have the power to help our children and future generations by doing everything we can now.
We can make it less difficult for them at the very least and save lives (and species) at the most.

We believe that working together in this way will help us all be more aware and active regarding this emergency in our individual lives and in our parts of the world. We want to stress that seriously fighting for policy changes to keep fossil fuels in the ground, to achieve the goals of clean energy production, halting deforestation, saving the oceans, reevaluating the way we approach agriculture, planning for mass migration and more are all of the utmost importance.
Climate change pits what the planet needs to maintain stability against what our economic model needs to sustain itself. But since that economic model is failing the vast majority of the people on the planet on multiple fronts that might not be such a bad thing. Put another way, if there has ever been a moment to advance a plan to help the planet that also heals our broken economies and our shattered communities, this is it. |
