An activist communications shop to support growing campaigns & organizers.

Founded in 2022, Pith & Pulp was created to help grassroots campaigns reach their target audiences and achieve their goals. We believe that a more equitable, sustainable future is possible. And we have the skills to get people onboard with the work that will make that future possible.

In addition to helping organizations refine their audiences and design their communication materials, we provide materials on our blog to help community organizers. We recognize that bringing a comms team in to work on a project isn’t always financially feasible and we want to make sure that the people doing great work in our city have access to our toolbox when it helps!
