MISSION STATEMENT
Positive Force World is an all-volunteer effort that grew out of trailblazing punk-activist group Positive Force DC in 2024.
Our mission is to empower grassroots punk communities and DIY projects across the globe through grants supporting arts and/or activism aimed at building a more just, caring and inclusive community, city, country and world.
If you are part of, or know about such a grassroots project that deserves support, please contact us to request an application form.
We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit legally incorporated in the District of Columbia, but we have no paid staff.
As such, all donations are tax-deductible and go straight to support worthy projects in the world, minus the minimal expenses required to continue to exist. Please select the tax free donation page in order to donate.
We know that punk is a creative, courageous and compassionate attitude that challenges each of us and our world, a spirit that inspires action or lacks all meaning. We seek to provide small bits of fuel to aid those who are seeking to speak truth, create beauty, nourish community or spark change through acts of love, art, protest and service.
Please join us!
w/ love,
The PFW Board
