Practical advocacy resources
Join to receive movement updates, creator-rights education, and the public action pathways that help turn research into pressure.
Movement participation
As a creator in today's digital landscape, you face unprecedented challenges--from AI systems using your work without permission to complex value chains that direct profits away from those who create. You need more than just another organization asking for membership dues.
Join here to add your voice, get updates, and take part in the movement. The free membership is the entry point; the Declaration, volunteer pathway, and donation path deepen the commitment.
Movement vs. infrastructure
SaveTheCreators.org is the public advocacy face. Distributed Creatives is the parent nonprofit that builds the technical layer behind the movement. If you want to contribute code, infrastructure, or DevOps, that work belongs on the parent surface, not here.
Why join through SaveTheCreators
Start here if you want to stand with creators, stay informed, and take part in public advocacy. Technical contribution paths still live on the parent nonprofit site.
Cross-disciplinary community
Whether you work in music, code, writing, film, design, or another creative field, the movement is built to hold more than one discipline at once.
Individual benefit, collective power
Free membership gives you a place in the community while collective advocacy works on the structural issues no creator can solve alone.
