Change.org is an open platform with room for a wide range of perspectives so people everywhere can take action on the issues they care about.
Every campaign you see on the platform is started by our users. People and organizations around the world use Change.org to start campaigns, mobilize supporters, and work with decision makers to drive solutions.
We are proud to support robust debate and avoid censoring content, but, like other prominent online platforms, we do remove certain content which clearly violates our Petition Guidelines including hate speech and the incitement of violence.EmpowermentChange.org is proudly people powered --
Change.org exists to empower people everywhere to create the change you want to see. In order for the platform to remain free, independent, and accessible to everyone, people like you power the petitions and the platform to help create change.
There are two ways people like you support the work we do.
Power specific petitions --
People use Change.org to campaign about the most pressing issues in their lives and communities. You can chip in to help petition starters find supporters, by paying to promote their petitions as advertisements to a wider audience on Change.org.
Power the platform --
You can become a Member to help more people around the world win their campaigns, financially supporting the expert coaching, media support and free technology that sees ordinary people win their campaigns every day. Members receive unique opportunities to go even deeper into the Change.org experience.AccountabilityChange.org is a Public Benefit Corporation, and is also held to high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency set by B Lab, an independent certifying group. As a Public Benefit Corporation, Change.org’s mission and commitment to empowering people everywhere are legally part of the company’s corporate charter. In certain countries, largely across Asia and Latin America, the Change.org Foundation supports people to use technology to campaign for change, and is also supported through philanthropic contributions.TransparencyCampaignsEnable anyone to start a campaign and immediately mobilize hundreds of others locally or hundreds of thousands around the world._bd9b7512-79ce-11e4-9806-fb7ed8212313It's now possible for anyone to start a campaign and immediately mobilize hundreds of others locally or hundreds of thousands around the world, making governments and companies more responsive and accountable.
We want to accelerate this dramatic shift -- by making it easier to make a difference, and by inspiring everyone to discover what's possible when they stand up and speak out._bd9b7742-79ce-11e4-9806-fb7ed82123132014-11-20OwenAmburOwen.Ambur@verizon.net
