Fandom Forward is an international 501c3 nonprofit organization that is dedicated to turning fans into heroes. Our mission is to make activism accessible and sustainable by using the power of story and popular culture. Through experiential training and real-life campaigns, we develop compassionate and skillful leaders who approach the world's problems with joy, creativity, and a commitment to equity.

At Fandom Forward, we believe in joyful activism and celebrate the power of community. We believe that heroes are not just born, but they develop with practice and support. Magic is a real force in our work, and we firmly believe that love is our most powerful weapon.

Our organization is committed to various causes, including LGBTQIA+ equality, gender equity, youth advocacy, racial justice, education, libraries, media reform, and climate change. We actively fight for equality and stand in solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community, practice intersectional feminism, support young people in expanding their political and social capital, work to dismantle racist institutional practices, advocate for truthful education and public libraries, increase media literacy, and address the impacts of climate change on marginalized communities.
