It’s been over a decade since we’ve gathered in community like this—and we’ve missed you.

So much has changed. The world around us continues to shift in ways both urgent and uncertain. But at Resist, we’re not simply letting change happen to us—we’re evolving with it. We’ve been transforming intentionally, from the inside out.

We’re excited to share all that’s new:

• New staff bringing fresh energy and bold vision
  
  
• New branding and a new website that reflect our values and our future
  
  
• New grant amounts to support grassroots movements with greater impact
  
  
• New experimentations in grantmaking, challenging traditional philanthropy
  
  
• New projects and collaborations, rooted in justice and collective liberation
  
  

But this isn’t just about the “new.” It’s about honoring what’s been growing all along.

This celebration is about watering the seeds our communities have planted over the years—about joy, connection, and being in a beloved community with one another. We want to be together. To dance, to laugh, to share space, and to remember why we do this work.

Whether you’re a grantee, an organizer, a comrade, an old friend, or someone newly learning about who we are—we invite you to come celebrate with us.
