Ámaxa Partnerships
This pathway provides a new model for effecting large-scale change for those with the tools, skills, and network of years in the professional world.
The core idea in Ámaxa Partnerships is recognzing that the greatest capacity for tangible change professionals possess is the ability to raise funds through corporate partnerships and donations via each of our professional networks.
Ámaxa Partnerships relies on the evidence-based model we have iterated on for 2 years: effecting change through remote project meetings with peers and a coach, aided by fine-tuned project management methodologies and custom-built online tools.
As this is a new pathway, we will accept applications on a rolling basis and reach out to applicants if we believe it will be a good fit.

What makes us different?
We take you from "I wish I could" to "Here's how I did." To accomplish this, we spent the last two years iterating, improving, and learning. Here's some things we do different than everyone else:
We built an online platform designed to amplify the impact of our teams.
With each new cohort, we more precisely understand teams' challenges, and over time, this data will fuel AI-driven tools, giving each team lessons of all teams before them.

The ability to effect change should not be limited by your home or your income. That's why we strive to make our community accessible and inclusive, so everyone who wants to make an impact can join. Our cohorts are 100% remote, and we offer scholarships to anyone who is unable to pay our annual $150 membership fee. After we receive funding, we aim to remove the fee altogether.

Members leave a cohort with friends around the world. Whether becoming close to your team members and coach, or meeting others through our remote events, ámaxa aims to forge connections that last well beyond the 3 month project.
Read stories of our members →Our projects and initiatives are high-impact.
Our projects are high-impact, innovative, and community-driven. We have partnered with nonprofits in Palestine, Liberia, and Uganda whose community-founded solutions are innovative in their fields, such as ISNAD Community Center's approach to community-based learning, the first in its area, and the Nyaka School's holistic approach to supporting AIDS-affected communities.
Where we spotted gaps in high-impact projects that our members wanted to work on, we created our own. Led by Head of Programs Alexi Jones, we have launched three new initiatives in 2024, focusing on mental health, feminism, and LBGTQ+ representation.
