Meet the Communities of Elevation.
We travel the world meeting ordinary people doing extraordinary things for their communities. Most of our partners are community led and grassroots, guided by their own vision. Sometimes we meet a charity doing brilliant work, like Funamos, and we support them too because impact is impact.
Many communities join the School of Elevation, the starting point of our ecosystem. It is open to everyone. Through hands on, income focused learning, we see who brings the energy, communication, commitment and integrity needed for deeper partnership.
Eight communities
One shared mission
We collaborate with Indigenous, tribal and marginalised communities who choose to invest in themselves.
Each one brings their own history, strengths and vision for the future.
Our role is simple. We amplify what already exists and bring it to life through culture, creativity and identity to create income, not charity.
The communities we are elevating now.
How communities join Elev-Eight.
A simple, powerful process
How communities move through the Elevation Pathway.
1. Explore
We travel, listen and spend time with communities to understand their work, culture and vision.
2. Learn (School of Elevation)
One representative joins our open access digital and creative training. This is where commitment and consistency show.
3. Elev-Eight (The Core Eight)
From the School of Elevation, eight communities are chosen at a time for deeper collaboration.
These creators go beyond digital learning into real business building.
Together we co create travel experiences, ecommerce products, services and micro businesses that generate income.
All communities learn.
The eight build businesses.
Both elevate.
Spotlight: Mónica. Funamos, Colombia
Mónica is a youth leader, creator and the digital heart of Funamos, a community led football project supporting more than 200 children in Ovejas, Sucre.
Her creativity and dedication were already strong.
Inside the School of Elevation she simply gained access, access to better digital tools, new ideas, creative brainstorming, and a global network of mentors who believed in her vision.
The rest is her own drive.
With her new digital skills, she captures powerful moments, tells real stories, and amplifies the impact Funamos creates for children every day. Her content is honest, cultural and full of life, showing the world what community leadership looks like.
Mónica shows exactly what we believe.
When one person has access to the right tools, the whole community elevates.
THE POWER OF THE COLLECTIVE
Social media for social elevation.
Every like, share and view generates income for creators and funds real community projects. This is what the power of the collective looks like.
