About ProgressPop

ProgressPop is a new digital media nonprofit dedicated to building people power for progressive change. We launched in 2019 and learned that we can create fun, engaging content across a variety of content verticals ranging from animals, to astrology, to pop culture, to celebrities that people love. That was exciting, but our key learning was that we could successfully inspire subscribers who we attracted with apolitical content to take highly impactful civic actions that advance progressive policies. So imagine if Buzzfeed, or The Dodo, or PopSugar had an explicit progressive social justice mission built into their DNA. That’s what we’re building. 

We ran our 2019 tests and developed a highly scalable growth engine with some seed funding, and because of our success in 2019, we’ve raised a large follow up investment. That investment will allow us to scale our growth engine so we can grow to 2 million subscribers across Messenger, Instagram and Podcasts by the end of 2020.
