Errbody! You don't have to be anyone special to donate, volunteer or lead a great idea into action.

Don't panic! It's probably just a little bug. This website is new to us, too. Give us a call at 917-464-4515 or email us at info@ioby.org with questions.
You bet! Share what you have learned on ioby and build your own network of ioby donors and volunteers through your user login page. ioby projects depend on the collective action of many people. Only together can we be part of great environmental change.
Yes. All project groups are required to post regular updates of their progress on their project's blog. When the project is completed, groups are required to submit a project evaluation and final expense report to ioby so that we can ensure the projects are completed as described in the project application, timeline, and budget. It is very important to us that we hold our projects accountable, because this builds trust with you, their best supporter.
Sounds like you're our kind of people. Donations as small as $1 are still very meaningful, but if that's still tough, we understand. We always need extra help, whether you have time to share, an old computer or party planning skills. We encourage you to find projects on ioby that need volunteers but we're also happy to have help around the ioby office, making seedballs, tabling at garden conferences or planting signs around your neighborhood.
Comment, ask questions and make suggestions directly on the project pages. Or, if you're shy, email us at info@ioby.org if you're interested in contacting a group directly. We'll put them in touch with you.
Yessiree! As the project groups post updates on their project blogs we encourage you to comment, ask questions, and make suggestions on the project profile page. Thanks for being a part of the community!
Awesome! We'd love to hear from you. Email us at info@ioby.org to find out more ways you can get involved.
Other donors can be anyone who cares about the environment or cares about his or her neighborhood -- from your neighbor to someone in another borough or another state. With this new site, you are now able to see the profiles of other donors and talk to them about environmental change in your neighborhood.
Absolutely! If a project you see on ioby is meaningful to you, please, donate to support it. Finding success in New York City, we hope to bring ioby to other cities that have great environmental work underway at the local level. If you're curious about when ioby might come to your backyard email us at info@ioby.org.
The ioby gratuity is optional, but crucial. When you check this box, we'll add 20% (similar to a restaurant gratuity) to your ioby donation. Your donation (all of it) still funds the project you picked. But your gratuity keeps ioby's lights on, our computers running, and our rent up to date. So check the box! and help us to continue creating grassroots change in your backyards.
Projects on ioby are funded by people just like you, people who care about the environment and care about their neighborhoods. ioby.org allows lots of people making small donations to have a big impact. Anyone might be a potential donor: you, your neighbor, or someone across the country who finds the projects on our site meaningful for one reason or another.
ioby connects donors and volunteers to local environmental projects in their neighborhoods through an online crowd-resourcing platform.
