Be A Searcher

be a searcher

Our staff, interns, and volunteers around the world call themselves Searchers because the mission to end violent conflict doesn’t stop when they leave the office. It’s a way of life.

Join us in this commitment. Searchers get special access to common ground trainings, tools, video chats with our peacebuilders around the world, mixers, workshops, and more.
Just pick one of these three ways to become a Searcher:


START YOUR
OWN TEAM

OR


DONATE $10/month
the cost of 2 cups of coffee

OR


HOLD A FUNDRAISER
to end violent conflict

start a team

Get a group of your friends or classmates together to raise awareness about violent conflict around the world or help solve conflicts in your area constructively. Hold a dialogue about a divisive local issue, practice cooperative problem-solving skills together, or host a benefit concert.

Sign up now to join our beta-testers. It’s an advisory group that we’ll convene via video chat to ask questions like: What resources will you need to start your own team? What activities do you want to do? How do you want us to help?

give now

$10/month can give 1 person the training and tools she needs to start building peace in her hometown.

91¢ of every $1.00 we spend goes to equipping peacebuilders around the world. 8¢ goes to administrative expenses like keeping the lights on. Only 1¢ goes to fundraising.
