Upswing Advocates Upswing Advocates News for Upswing Advocates After 5 years as a nonprofit organization August Worner and the Board of Directors acknowledged together that it was time to dissolve our 501c3 status. This has been a labor of love that takes much energy. It is important to us to continue to align our actions with our values while caring for this work our communities and ourselves as humans. The time has come for us to name the fact that this work is not sustainable for us in its current state and that the work will continue but in different ways and from an individual rather than organizational basis.

I work in a nonprofit and listing our organization on Eduo.org helped us reach new audiences and even new volunteers. It’s easy to use and feels built with love.

As a teacher, I use Eduo in class to show students how civic engagement works. It’s inspiring and educational. Highly recommend for schools and community groups.

What I appreciate most about Eduo is its neutrality and inclusivity. It doesn't push any agenda — just provides tools for people to explore and support what matters to them.
