About HOST
HOST is a not-for-profit social enterprise dedicated to unlocking the power of people and communities to drive meaningful change. We believe that real transformation happens from the ground up — and that grassroots activists and movements are key to tackling today’s most urgent environmental and social challenges.
And we know that our partners face barriers. That they don’t always have access to the right resources, networks, or operational solutions. That’s where we come in. HOST provides the infrastructure, strategic development expertise, and tailored support they need to thrive.
We exist to make their lives easier, taking care of essential back-office responsibilities — financial, legal, and administrative — so they can get on with the difficult challenges. And we offer strategic guidance to help them build momentum, strengthen their impact, and sustain their work for the long term.
In the face of an ever-changing world of systemic challenges, we strive to create meaningful connections and support shared progress — so our work is rooted in collaboration, inclusivity, and trust. Together, we enable the people and projects driving change to navigate complexities, overcome barriers, and make a lasting impact for a more just and equitable future.
Since 2020, we’ve supported over 350 changemakers in more than 90 countries. Because we believe in doing the right thing, acting with urgency, and working alongside change-makers to create a better world.
