Our current Natural World beneficiary, 350.org, provides resources and information to facilitate the development of a worldwide climate change movement. You can read about all the great work they do on the FBB blog.
Beyond Belief Network staff were extremely impressed with all of the event ideas and resources they provide for local groups to join the climate change movement. We’ve compiled a guide to joining the local climate change movement through 350.org. Most of the event ideas involve educating your community about climate change or energy conservation; additional ideas include getting involved with local politics. Best of all, the ideas do not require asking your team for money, and you don’t need a lot of money for the events, either.
Make sure to tell us about your 350.org event, and if your team hasn’t already joined Beyond Belief Network, join today! We’ll help your local group find and plan service events and give you recognition and rewards for helping your community. If you can, plan an event for the last week in April, and register it on our Week of Action website so we can show the world the good that humanists do.

Foundation Beyond Belief is demonstrating humanism at its best. --Digital Chum
The best part [of FBB membership] is sharing the experience with our children. We want them to help us figure out what our monthly contribution should be and where it should go. --Raising Three Thinkers
[My] kids watched the videos from War Child and Water for People. Learning happened. Humanitarianism happened. My children felt compassion for others and wanted to help. -- Learning from the Kitchen Table
A vital test of any humanist organization's humanism is its ability to help those in need, which the Foundation is doing so admirably. --Paul Kurtz Institute for Science and Human Values
The regular contribution [model] means that our total charitable giving will most certainly increase this year. --Amy Schirmer, member
I scrolled down the list of contribution levels until I hit one that hurts, just a little. But it's a good kind of hurt. --Peter Nothnagle, member
