Good ideas can come from anywhere.

🌱 Why This Started

I wanted to become more involved in improving my community, but I was also working, going to school, and living a normal busy life.

I knew I wasn't the first person who cared about these problems. There were already nonprofits, researchers, teachers, organizers, businesses, students, experts, and residents doing the work.

The challenge was figuring out:

Who is doing what? What already exists? Who needs help? What's missing? And where could I actually be useful?

That became the idea behind Protect the Collective.
