vibrary (n): a joyful gathering place for
social cohesion *and* civic action

Make friends and make a difference with us in Seattle, NYC, online, and more.

In 2024, Soapbox opened locations in Belltown, Seattle and in Greenwich Village, Manhattan where community members can convene on a regular basis to connect, learn, and take action. In 2025, we're launching in DC, the Bay Area, and LA. Join our membership to get involved with an existing vibrary or learn to launch one in your own city!

what if you could do good *and* feel even better?

Here's how it works.

Soapbox Project has three layers: (1) Changeletter, our bite-sized climate action newsletter, (2) our membership community, and (3) our city-based vibraries. No matter how you're engaging, the experience is consistent with one monthly topic and four outcomes.

01 | connection

Based on our monthly theme, you're given conversation prompts that help you connect with yourself, with others, and with the world.

Examples of actions: 1) 3 simple ways to use your money to save the world 2) 5 ways to build a more ethical closet
02 | learning

Climate change is overwhelming, so we bring you bite-sized learning that breaks down complex topics into actionable steps. We spotlight voices that prioritize climate justice and look holistically at the challenge we face.

03 | action

Now that you've made friends and learned stuff, we'll take action together. The Soapbox team gives you guidance on which actions can make the most difference on the monthly topic, whether it's donating, volunteering, writing to your reps, or something else.

Pictures of various happenings within our community, including two members smiling and hanging out at the farmers market holding flowers, a post on how to call your elected officials, and a screenshot of a tree planting event invitation.
04 | reflection

Maybe it's a poem that makes you think about our monthly topic differently. Maybe it's you journaling about your experience taking action. We'll always end with reflective next steps that help you figure out how to celebrate and where to go after this.

Together, we are unstoppable.
