Become a Dimer

Together, we can move mountains. Fix problems that seem unfixable. Provide for those who cannot. Basically, do a lot of good.

Prioritized by kindness, Once Upon A Dime is a diverse community focused on next-level change. Empowered by micro-donations, we’re philanthropy for the masses. Enact change like billionaires but forget attending stuffy galas. We’re not about big names on buildings or obvious virtue signaling. Please say hello to real human power.

Nice sticker…
Don’t be surprised if another Dimer notices that cool sticker on the back of your phone. An IRL social network connecting people and important causes?! Meaningful nods replace mindless small talk, right? Your kids off their phones talking to one another? And that bumper sticker?... Might just turn merging into the new rage. Kindness wins. Oh, you’re welcome. 

Let’s get started.

You may ask, “What can I do?”
A better question, “What can we do?”

Great hearts think alike.

The answer, “a whole @&#$ of a lot."
