Where We Work

MakeWay builds deep, trust-based relationships with communities across the country, connecting them with expertise, tools, and strategic partnerships to tackle critical challenges.

We go only where we are invited

Significant, sustainable change is not possible without taking the time to nurture deep place-based relationships. With over two decades of experience, MakeWay is committed to building place-based programs that connect people, share learnings, and grow networks of changemakers to build innovative community-led solutions that are powerful and sustainable.

While we are open to working with any community, we only work in the places that we have been invited into.
