Vital Impacts Met the Match! Thanks to YOU and the Make It Better Foundation!

The Make It Better Foundation generously offered to match all donations to Vital Impacts—up to $5,000—effectively doubling our impact. Thank you to everyone who donated! Because of you, we raised over $8,000! Your support helps protect endangered habitats and empowers the storytellers who amplify essential stories. Through these stories, we ignite passion, spark change, and drive the collective action needed to make a real and lasting difference.

More about the campaign. During a recent conversation between Vital Impacts' founder Ami Vitale and the incredibly thoughtful Mark Edward Harris from the Make It Better Foundation, they explored the power of a single image to impact our understanding of the world. 

"At this critical moment for humanity, we cannot afford to feel overwhelmed or hope that someone else will address our challenges," said Vitale. "Stories can be transformative and galvanize the meaningful actions necessary for enduring change."

What began as a vision to unite artists and storytellers for grassroots conservation has grown into a global movement. At Vital Impacts, through three core programs, we connect Indigenous peoples, communities, and local organizations to share powerful narratives about climate resilience and wildlife protection.

To learn more about this work and the conversation that inspired this campaign, we encourage you to read Mark’s wonderful story about how a single image can help change the world.

Your support makes a difference every day.

We rely on donations year-round to continue this vital work, and it's never too late to contribute.

If you're able, please consider making a gift today. Thank you!
