It Takes a System
The New World will not be created by the elite, with policies, in the halls of power. It will be created by ordinary people, with passion, in the heart of community.
Creating the New World is going to take us all—our collective knowledge, expertise, resources, and innovations working together in common purpose toward a common goal. CtNW may have a powerful way to inspire and focus us in common purpose, but it's nothing if no one shows up!
In true "of the people, by the people" grassroots fashion, CtNW offers many ways to bring your passion, ideas, expertise, and resources to this world-building party. Peruse your options below, and give us a shout. We'd love to explore with you.

Consider that you hold a vital part of what's needed in the New World. CtNW holds a way to bring the all the pieces together, so that we're ALL able to bring our creations into the world coherently on a global scale. The success of the whole is dependent on the success of the parts and vice versa. You need a cohesive global platform to play in and we need players! As we partner, we synergize, support, and build momentum to realize our individual and collective visions.
Like many of you on the front lines of positive change, we're in the process of finding collaborators we can help and who can help us, enhancing the work of all involved so that our new, brighter, sustainable world becomes reality.
Besides the mutual benefits of partnership we'll determine together when we talk further, partnering with CtNW will provide visibility of your work, organization, and social responsibility through:
- Placement on CtNW's Partner Page, which includes a supportive write-up, logo, and link to your organization.
- News of the partnership shared on social and business networking sites (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Jumo), which includes logo, link, and a narrative of the exciting possibilities the partnership brings with it.
- Logo placement on relevant printed material and web content of CtNW.
- Promotional links to your relevant events.
- Opportunity to be highlighted as a Featured Partner on the CtNW web site and in New World News™, CtNW's monthly e-publication.

CtNW has a transformational human-social technology that, when mobilized, can awaken, engage, and unite humanity to create a world of its deepest truths and highest aspirations. Sponsorships are key to mobilizing it, especially since it's a truly grassroots effort in a critical initial phase of implementation.
If you're excited about what CtNW represents, inspired by our authenticity and dedication to being of service to humanity, and jazzed about the work we're doing, consider becoming a sponsor.
Sponsorship can take many forms:
- Financial—There are partnerships to form, programs to implement, materials to create, technology to deploy, people to remunerate, services to obtain, outreach to make, travel to take, etc. We'd like to finance the work in the same grassroots way we're implementing it—of the people, by the people—so, the thought of crowd-sourcing small amounts by a lot of people really excites us. We're also looking for those people and organizations fortunate enough to have a surplus of financial resources, heart, and social responsibility who can make larger contributions to our collective future. If you'd like to make a donation, you may do it below. You will receive a thank you note, receipt, and a free copy of Humanity's Guide to Creating the New World ™ when it is available in early 2012.
- In-kind services, products, and expertise—Money isn't everything. The New World will rely on collaborative partnerships in which services, products, and expertise are exchanged in service to the whole, and creating it will, too. There's much to do, so there aren't many things we couldn't put to good use. If you have something you'd like to offer, let us know here.
- The Harley Tour—Our founder, Nancy Polend, is on a personal mission: To inspire, invite, and engage us in the work of literally creating the New World. She's going to ride her purple Harley across the U.S. to do that and to bring much-needed attention, support, expertise, and resources to communities wanting to rebuild after economic, natural, social, and political disasters. Find out more here.
Want to reignite, rebuild, or renew your community? Bring inspiration and a sense of hope for the future to your group or organization? Align your life, work, project, or organization with its highest aspirations? Start or enhance a local revitalization movement? Do you have an event focused on any of these for which you need an engaging, interactive speaker? Or, do you simply want to lift people's spirits in a world gone mad? Invite Nancy to speak or facilitate a workshop here.
Creating the New World is a grassroots movement designed specifically for that purpose. It’s designed so that the people host and participate in the world-building work, develop community and global visions together, and build the New World together. It’s what creating a world of the people, by the people, for the people and all Life, with the planet truly looks like.
It’s time to finance our own evolution—to fuel our own creation process. It’s time to put the whole world to work on the task of creating a world that reflects who we TRULY are and how we TRULY want to live.
How better to fuel a grassroots movement than to crowd-finance it ourselves? What better way to demonstrate to ourselves that WE can do it, that we aren’t dependent on others to create our future for us, and that we aren’t powerless? How better to embody the principles of “We, the people?”
