About Us
Our mission is to empower everyday heroes. That’s Our Big Why. That’s Why we exist.
Solving social and environmental problems is really hard. Still, many of us choose to do it by leading our own grassroots actions. We love to rescue animals, clean beaches, parks, rivers, oceans, and you-name-it, go plogging, do food drives and clothes swaps, visit the elderly, reforest, compost, and so much more…
Luckily for the world, there are +700 million everyday heroes just like us doing it globally, against all odds.
Despite our undying passion, we really, really, struggle. We pay for everything ourselves, battle to mobilize help and resources, mostly act in the dark, lead isolated and informal efforts, and lack adequate collaboration and accountability tools.
We looked everywhere for a platform that understood us and gave us the tools we needed so we could overcome all the obstacles we shared. We found nothing so we decided to build it.
Wemerang is a custom-built, one-stop-shop for everyday heroes, by everyday heroes so we can easily create and join our own challenges, find and mobilize a like-minded community to help, earn points, status and exclusive benefits, and make money from P2P donations, challenge entry fees, and a “mobilize-to-earn” crypto economy. Take a look at what we’re building!
Be a hero and help us to continue leaving the world better than we found it.
