Àmaxa’s mission is to make it easier for people who want to make a difference to actually take action — not just feel stuck in that “I want to help, but I don’t know how” feeling.
ámaxa takes chance out of making change.
1. Through Ámaxa Pathways, we match you to a project with a clear goal at one of our 9 partner nonprofits & initiatives, a team of passionate peers, and a trained coach. The program is 100% remote.
2. Then, over 3 months, you meet weekly on Zoom to plan & accomplish your project in the way that best highlights your team’s passions & strengths.
3. Along the way, you implement project management methodologies designed specifically for ámaxa projects & utilize the tools and resources in our custom online platform.

Àmaxa’s mission is to make it easier for people who want to make a difference to actually take action — not just feel stuck in that “I want to help, but I don’t know how” feeling.
So, we aim to take care of every aspect of what stops people- when you have that “but how do I start feeling”- the right nonprofit to help, who will do it with you, someone to guide you, and how to manage the project, all remotely.
Our first pathway launched in 2023 for high school students. We match each student with one of our nonprofit partners- working in areas like education, mental health, refugee support, and more- a small team of peers, and a trained coach. Over three months, they meet weekly over Zoom and work together on a project—some have created educational platforms for students in Palestine, planted trees across three countries, raised funds for medical aid in Ukraine, paid tuition for Liberian students, and more. A core part of our mission is accessibility: the program is 100% remote and scholarship-backed, so any student who wants to make a difference can do so, regardless of financial background.
