A home for collective action

Good things happen
together.

You bring the ideas, the people and the drive to make a difference. We help you receive funding and organise the administration, so you can get on with it.

People lead. We make room.

Behind every good idea,
there are people who care.

Open Collective Europe is a foundation connecting collective action and philanthropy. We give nonprofit initiatives a legal and financial home, and help funders put resources into the hands of people making change.
