Lower Barriers

Nonprofit organization for code to make civic engagement, starting a business/organization, and other things easier

Lower Barriers, for everyone

We started a nonprofit organization.

It turns out that filing all the paperwork, recruiting the first members, and making a presence for ourselves (which are just the first few steps, not to mention fundraising and working on our mission among others) was a tall order!

Our work is to make things easier for you, based on what we've learned. In this space and our website you'll find tools that lower the barrier to:

  • Running for office, no matter your political affiliation
  • Starting your own nonprofit
  • Starting a small business... with low overhead
  • Making a quick website for that idea that popped into your head last week

And here's the best part: You can participate, freely! We look forward to lowering barriers with you.
