Description

We're so glad you're here!

Idealist was launched in 1995 on a shoestring budget but with an ambitious goal: to be the starting point for anyone, anywhere who wants to make the world a better place.

Today Idealist is the most popular online resource for the nonprofit sector, with information provided by 70,000 organizations around the world, 100,000 unique site visitors every day, and a staff of 25 in New York, NY and Portland, OR.

Offline, we run the Idealist Grad Fairs and we recently launched a new pilot project in New York City to help more people take action on the issues that concern them, both online and in person.

Note: Our legal name is Action Without Borders, but we are known most commonly as Idealist.

Take a look at our staff bios, find out what it's like to work here, and how you can get involved.

You can also fan us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter, join our LinkedIn group, and connect with us on Pinterest.
