Welcome to Big Neighborhood. We are making the world feel a little smaller by talking with people who are making a difference in their communities in unique, cool or impactful ways. We amplify their stories through our traveling roadcast and donate 50% of our apparel profits to them. Pull up a chair and let’s create a neighborhood.
[ About ]Make the table bigger
We cross the country talking to people from all walks of life and ideologies because we like it, and why not? We like being surprised, inspired, even irritated by the people we meet. Face-to-face conversations are so much better — and so different — than what passes for online communication. These conversations expand our understanding of how people live and make us want to add more chairs to our table. We think they might do the same for you.
Building a company with a conscience
We have been part of non-profits before. They can do amazing things. However, to do their amazing things they need to raise money — all the time. We are trying a different approach. We are creating a business — an apparel company — designed to give 50% of its profits to the organizations whose stories we tell. As we grow, our impact grows — and these organizations grow. Our signature product, the Neighborhoodie, will not only keep you warm, it will also make an impact on people’s lives. Plus, you’ll look damn good wearing it. It seems worth a try.
