The American Stewardship Initiative

ASI’s mission is to build a vibrant republic led by our country’s best and brightest citizenry. We are focused on equipping citizens with a deep appreciation for America’s exceptionalism. ASI approaches its work through the lens of local leadership, establishing community institutions that shape and influence the neighborhoods we call home.

The foundation of ASI’s work is through challenging citizens to put community and country on their priority list in the same way they do their family, business, health, faith and other values that are integral to their well-being. ASI aspires to make active citizenry a part of Americans’ everyday lives, and to equip them with the necessary tools to take deliberate and consistent steps to help rehabilitate leadership in our republic by starting at the local level.

ASI is the only organization solely committed to a nonpartisan, multifaceted approach of civic engagement at the local level.

ASI focuses on action by encouraging its donors and their networks to be not just financial supporters but also thought-leaders and active participants in the work. ASI is inspiring many of its supporters to demonstrate their engagement through local civic involvement, ensuring their philanthropy goes beyond dollars to include time, attention, and participation.

Through its programs, ASI is not just creating leaders; it is creating a renewed vision for America, where families and communities are empowered to engage in governance and civic work that drives meaningful, long-lasting change.
