Acquaint Missions: Small Acts to Transform Human Connection

Looking for volunteering that fits your life and changes how you show up in the world?

Acquaint Missions are simple challenges to practice and promote human connection—right where you are. Pick a mission, take action, reflect on what happened, and celebrate. Do it solo or bring your team. Complete it in a day or spread it across a week.
