Class Act Campaign

Honor a Class Act!

A Class Act is someone who shows commitment, compassion, generosity, or leadership around issues of class and classism.

Do you know someone who is a “Class Act”?

Class Acts share their time, talent, and resources to support their communities. They have taken stands for economic justice, found creative ways to open new doors, or taken action to level the playing field. Some have made a significant difference in the life of just one person.

The Class Act Campaign connects inspiring individuals to a growing movement of people whose actions are contributing to a world without classism.

Sharing the story of a person you consider a Class Act and making a gift to Class Action will carry these diverse voices into the national dialogue on class. Read more about the campaign.

Gifts may also be made in memory of people who were Class Acts in their lifetimes.

Yes, I'd like to honor a Class Act!
