DoSomething

Overview

DoSomething is a nonprofit organization focused on empowering young people to create positive change in their communities. Founded in 1993, it has activated over 8 million individuals aged 13-25 across the U.S. and in 189 countries. The organization serves as a coach, champion, and connector, helping youth learn about social issues, build leadership skills, and take meaningful action.

It runs a variety of youth activism campaigns that engage participants in volunteerism and civic action on topics such as climate change, mental health, and food insecurity. Through resources for leadership development and community engagement initiatives like letter-writing campaigns and safe driving promotions, it provides tools for young people to take action. Its digital platform allows youth to find causes, join campaigns, and measure their impact, while its consultancy arm, DoSomething Strategic, uses youth behavioral data to help brands engage with Gen Z, reinvesting profits into the organization's mission.
