Right now,
​​
a Czech mum with her knitting 🧶,
a teenage musician in Amritsar,
a grandpa in Luanda or a NY door-dasher who both love to write,​
​
they're all wishing for a hero who will lift their community out of crisis.
At Carry Us Through, we help them channel their creativity to show up as that ✊ hero.
Using social media, we trumpet their voice, craft, and cause...
and the story that ties them all together.
Each creator contributes 3 custom crafted items which we raffle or auction.
65% of raised funds go back to empower the creator's community.
​
The bidder or raffle winner gets the physical art piece as well as a digital version displayed on their Legacy Shelf, a public record of their impact.
