Find & fund community

Every community is already doing the work. DIR3CT is the directory that finds it.

One place for the causes, events, groups, organizations, people, products, resources, services, stories, and words moving a community forward — kept current by the people it belongs to, with the funding rails to back what they find.

The problem

The work is happening. Finding it is the job nobody has.

Every community runs on a directory that doesn’t exist — it’s scattered across a dozen sites, group chats, spreadsheets, and the memory of whoever’s been around longest. When that person burns out or moves away, the map goes with them. New energy shows up, can’t find the door, and leaves.

What’s in it

Ten ways in. One map.

Causes

The work happening near you, and the concrete ways to back it.

Events

What's on, who's convening it, and where to show up.

Groups

The circles doing the work week after week.

Organizations

Who serves the community, and what they actually do.

People

The neighbors, leaders, and builders behind all of it.

Products

What the community makes, and where to buy it from the makers themselves.

Resources

Funding, tools, and support pathways in one place.

Services

The skills neighbors offer, and how to hire them directly.

Stories

What changed, told by the people it changed.

Words

The sayings, phrases, and language the community speaks in — its voice, written down.

Find the work. Then fund it.

Every listing can carry a way to back it — so support flows to the work, not to whoever shouts loudest.

Proof

We’re putting our own community on it first.

TeamR3SET.com — the home of the R3SETTer community, wherever they are — is being rebuilt on DIR3CT right now. Not a demo tenant: the directory we’ll ask our own neighbors, partners, and funders to use. When we say a community can keep its own map current, we’re describing our own.

How it rolls out

Phased on purpose.

DIR3CT launches in phases so listings are verified before the public arrives — a map people trust from the first search.

  1. Phase 1

    Seed

    We load the organizations and people who anchor the community — checked by the people in them before anyone else arrives.

  2. Phase 2

    Open

    Events, groups, resources, causes, products, services, stories, and words follow, kept current by the community itself.

  3. Phase 3

    Fund

    Funding rails switch on once the map has weight — money moves to the work without a middleman deciding what deserves it.

It’s time

Your community deserves a map.
