Tribu World is revolutionizing the nonprofit sector by addressing the critical challenges of outdated technology, limited resources, and fragmented operations. Many nonprofits struggle with inefficiencies, financial constraints, and lack of centralized spaces to engage stakeholders—barriers that weaken their ability to scale and sustain long-term impact. These challenges not only limit organizational growth but also hinder progress toward global goals such as sustainable communities (SDG 11) and effective partnerships (SDG 17). Tribu was built to change that by making digital transformation accessible, enabling nonprofits to focus more on their mission and less on operational roadblocks.

As an all-in-one SaaS platform, Tribu streamlines operations with tools for membership management, payments, data visualization, and integrated fundraising systems, including crowdfunding campaigns. It enhances stakeholder engagement through community forums, communication spaces, and collaborative project tools. Beyond efficiency, Tribu fuels growth by introducing nonprofits to new revenue streams and fostering inter-organizational collaboration through its “meta community” model. By combining innovation with accessibility, Tribu empowers nonprofits to thrive, build resilience, and drive lasting social impact at scale.

Volunteer for a startup promoting social connection & environmental awareness ��

Ray Sea Association
We run hands-on upcycling workshops that build social connection, creativity, and environmental awareness.

Ray Sea addresses two interconnected challenges: social disconnection and environmental awareness. In today’s fast-paced world, many people feel isolated and lack spaces to connect through meaningful, creative experiences.

Our workshops use creativity as a bridge — fostering dialogue, mutual support, and collective expression. Participants co-create, share stories, and rediscover the joy of making with their hands, building confidence and emotional well-being. At the same time, we address textile waste by reusing and transforming recovered materials, raising awareness of sustainability and circular creation.

In essence, Ray Sea promotes connection — between people, and between people and their environment — through creative, conscious, and shared making.

• Design a clear, realistic, and results-oriented marketing strategy.
• Adapt the strategy to a small, agile organization with limited resources.
• Create or refine workshops, educational programs, corporate team-building offers, and partnerships.
• Align each offer with market demand and internal capabilities.

You will focus on strategic levers such as:

• partnerships,
• email marketing,
• SEO,
• events,
• paid ads when relevant,
• targeted networking.
• Build a clear funnel from awareness to registration and retention.
• Keep it efficient, lightweight, and realistic.
• Identify the few actions that generate the highest impact.

Reliable Media brings together the Stop Funding Hate and Stop Funding Heat campaigns under one organisational umbrella.

Our mission is to make hate and climate misinformation unprofitable by persuading advertisers to stop funding media outlets and platforms that spread harmful narratives. We believe advertising shapes culture and that, by disrupting the financial incentives behind harmful media, we can build an information ecosystem that is inclusive, accountable and climate responsible.

Would you like to help drive our campaigns?
We are currently seeking new voluntary Board members to strengthen our governance and support the next stage of our mission to make hate and climate misinformation unprofitable.

At this point in time, we are especially looking to appoint:

• A Treasurer to provide strategic financial oversight and support long-term sustainability and
• A Board Member with Legal expertise to help us take informed, proportionate risks and navigate a complex media landscape.

We want to ensure that diverse voices are at the heart of our Board. We’d especially welcome applications from racialised communities, people from ethnic minority backgrounds, LGBTQ+ people, disabled people, people from minority faith backgrounds, including those disproportionately targeted by harmful or discriminatory media narratives.

Being a Board Member may be voluntary but it’s still a real commitment.

Board Members are also engaged in various working groups, such as fundraising, governance or DEI or offer short-term ad hoc support where they have relevant expertise. But it’s hugely rewarding. You would be helping to ensure Reliable Media continues to challenge harmful media narratives, shift industry norms and make hate and climate misinformation unprofitable.
