I built Revel Sphere to bridge the gap between digital connection and local action, providing communities with free, accessible tools to organize committees and launch impactful projects.

I came here looking for a place to plug in after I moved. Joined a sphere on housing the same day, and by the end of the week I knew three community members by name.

My co-leads and I plan, sign volunteers up, and follow up together in one shared space. We get to put our energy into the work itself and into the people showing up for it.

They started by asking what our org actually needed. We shaped the setup together — and now it feels like ours.

Daily wisdom
A rotating quote from the activist heritage — anchor before you act.
Inline guide nudges
When a thread needs a follow-up or framing, the Community Guide quietly suggests one.
HQ is where civic action gathers across the network — pledges, calls, public comments, and bills in plain language. Add your name, your voice, your minute on a Tuesday. Every action rolls up to your county, your state, and the community members doing the same work somewhere else.
Sign a pledge
Add your name to a national campaign and see how many community members in your state stand with you.
Call your rep
A three-minute flow — issue, district, script in your voice — and the call gets logged.
Public comment
Pick an open federal docket, draft from a template, send it to the record forever.
Plain Language Civics
Paste a bill number, get a calm nonpartisan summary — what it does, who it affects, where you come in.
Tenant coalition won a 90-day eviction-notice rule
Six months of public comment, 312 calls, and a packed council chamber. The rule passed 4–1.

Three doors, one platform
“Fight for the things that you care about, but do it in a way that will lead others to join you.” — Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Spheres are also shared-interest groups — a place to ideate through topics, attend the events your group plans, and meet community members actually doing the work. Many volunteers start here, get hooked, and become organizers themselves.

Our culture
Revel Sphere exists to uplift — never to exclude. This is who we are and what we protect.
LGBTQIA+, Black, Brown, Indigenous, disabled, immigrant, houseless, formerly incarcerated — if you want to build community, you belong here. Full stop. We center the voices most often pushed to the margins.
Racism, transphobia, homophobia, xenophobia, ableism, and white supremacy have no place here. This platform will never be used to organize harm against any community. Movements rooted in hate or oppression are not welcome.
Trolling, harassment, and bad-faith content are flagged by our moderation system and reviewed by admin. Disruptive accounts are removed. Sphere founders also have tools to protect their communities.
Revel Sphere facilitates community building, mutual aid, advocacy, and service. We do not host, promote, or tolerate activity that targets, dehumanizes, or endangers any group of people — regardless of how it brands itself.
Need an accommodation?
Email hello@revelsphere.org and we'll work with you — extra time on sign-ups, alternate formats, a phone call instead of a form, whatever helps you participate.

Revel Sphere is a community-powered platform that connects volunteers, advocates, and organizers with local service events, social gatherings, and cause-based groups called spheres. Built for communities, nonprofits, activists, and anyone who wants to turn caring into doing — Revel Sphere makes it easy to find opportunities, organize action, track your impact, and build lasting community.
When you sign up for an event and check in, your volunteer hours are automatically logged to your profile. Over time you earn recognition badges, build an impact history, and can share your contributions with organizations. Every hour timestamped, every event verifiable — just show up and it counts.
Spheres are community groups organized around a shared cause or interest — environmental stewardship, food security, youth mentoring, community safety, or anything else. Each sphere has its own feed, events, members, and moderation tools. You can join existing spheres or create your own using the manual builder or the AI-powered Sprout Guide.
Yes. Nonprofits, city programs, and community organizations can use Revel Sphere to post volunteer opportunities, track engagement, and reach new volunteers. White-label deployments with operations support are available for teams that want a branded surface of their own.
Absolutely. Revel Sphere is built for action — and that includes advocacy, activism, and civic engagement. Create a sphere around housing justice, climate action, voter registration, public health, or any cause that needs a coordinated voice. Organize rallies, letter-writing campaigns, town hall prep sessions, and direct action events. Track participation, grow your base, and keep momentum between actions — all in one place.
Each Revel Space is a full volunteer coordination toolkit. Post an event, set shift capacity, and volunteers can sign up, check in on mobile, and get automatic hour tracking — all in one shared space. Volunteer profiles store skills, interests, and availability so you can match the right people to the right shift in a couple of clicks.
Yes. Hours are logged automatically when a volunteer checks in at an event, and each volunteer has a shareable impact profile. Coordinators can export participation reports for grant applications, school service-learning requirements, court-ordered community service, or corporate volunteer programs. Everything is timestamped and tied to a verifiable event — ready for the report on day one.
Every space includes shift sign-ups, volunteer check-ins, automatic hour tracking, a volunteer database with skills and availability, meeting logs and notes, resource requests for supplies and gear, posts and replies for group communication, forms for intake and surveys, and the AI Community Organizer for drafting events end-to-end. Spaces can run in planning mode (full suite) or forum mode (chat + events only) depending on how your community operates.
Join Revel Sphere. No organization needed, no commitment required — just show up once and see what happens.
