I never thought that little email newsletter we all started together back in 2008 would grow like it did, but those roots of caring connectivity we planted went deep!
TY Pollen staff, members, funders, donors, partners, board members, volunteers and friends for an amazing run!!

We hope that this ending can be an opportunity for new growth and that Pollen’s work will live on through the many people who were involved throughout its life.

For months, the remaining team at Pollen has been imagining a more healing and restorative response beyond the examples we experience or expect. Before we move forward by sharing more programming and stories, please take a moment to read Ruby’s last word.

Shout out to this stunning, thoughtful pivot from @PollenMidwest . I didn't make any #GTMD23 appeals today, until now. While there's still time consider the new options they are offering a gift towards their Give to the Max day goal.

Though Pollen has evolved over the years, we are what we’ve always been — an organization that uses stories to help create a more kind, just, and loving world.
