Edifye

https://www.edifye.org/home

Edifye is a non-profit organization that connects professional athletes & other platformed entertainers to the local/down-ballot issues that they care about. At Edifye, we do two things: find the specific reasons WHY each person is in this fight for equity and reparations, then connect them to the resources to act on it. We want to identify where players can really move the needle, and what their respective cities actually need — symbolic gestures and donations to team charities are nice, but we’re focusing on mutual aid and lasting change. Those in power want to see pro athletes “SHUT UP AND DRIBBLE.” We’ll work together to tailor their message and turn up the speakers.
