OpenPlans is a platform for social activism.

Whether your group is mobilizing voters, planning a protest, or growing a garden, OpenPlans can help you become more effective. OpenPlans is about greasing the wheels of democracy.

With our collaborative wiki pages and other tools, you and your group can:

• Make projects
• Share to-do lists
• Upload photos
• Publicize your cause
• Create and use mailing lists
• Store and share files
• and more…

If you don't see something you need, please let us know. Chances are, it's just around the bend.

If you are a developer who wants to get involved, visit the OpenCore Software project.

About The Open Planning Project

OpenPlans is developed by TOPP. We are a dot-org: a non-profit building technology to enhance civic participation. We care about what we build, and we're open source through and through.

We created OpenPlans for social change groups, to help them save time and become more effective. These groups often have a lot of passion and smarts, but not a lot of extra people power or time.

OpenPlans is our third initiative. We also founded GeoServer, a platform for sharing geographic information, and we are collaborators in the New York City Streets Renaissance, a campaign for lively public space in NYC.

TOPP was born in 2000.
