About Us

If you're looking for a real way to take action on the climate crisis, you've found it.

Public Outreach was founded in 2002 by former Greenpeace canvassers who believed that ethical fundraising begins with fairness - a guaranteed hourly wage, transparent practices, and respect for both fundraisers and donors.

Today, we're one of North America's leading ethical fundraising agencies, partnering with major environmental and humanitarian organizations to secure the sustainable monthly support they need to protect our planet, defend wildlife, and uplift vulnerable communities.
