un-fakeable
access.

reach is for sale. belonging isn't.

we put your brand inside the vetted communities and fandoms people actually trust. invited in by the people who run the room, not a passive scroll.

think of it like sponsoring Little League, but for every kind of community, everywhere.

1.5M+ real people already engaged, across hundreds of these rooms nationwide.

“we love this. can they add milk?”

insights from a social club member who tried the coffee, but had a suggestion. the brand came out with a latte.
the usual ask

most data points you to moms, or gen z, or multicultural millennials.

we get it. moms make 85% of the buying decisions in the household. it's in every plan. we know, we've sat on that side of the table too.

no one group is a monolith. ‘moms’ is new moms and boy moms and middle school moms and single moms, and none of them live only in ‘mom.’ they are in run clubs, book clubs, fantasy leagues and peri circles, rooms that have nothing to do with being a parent. that is where they actually talk.

we know and access these rooms, because we have already sourced and vetted them.

the evidence

the case for showing up isn't a hunch. it's measured.

88%

trust recommendations from friends and family above every other form of advertising.

Nielsen, 2021
84%

would welcome a brand they trust showing up in their own community.

Harris Poll, 2026
82%

need a brand to prove it acts on its values, repeatedly, before they take it seriously.

Harris Poll, 2026
73%

are less likely to trust an ad the moment they suspect AI made it.

Harris Poll · Infillion · 4As, 2026
57%

of the internet is now bots and AI, not people.

how it works

how a quarterly engagement works

you tell us who you want to reach. we source and vet the rooms, our organizers fold you in, and one quarter later you get the receipts. zero overhead, and the funding goes to the clubs.

  1. thousands of indie communities gather daily with no brand partner.

  2. we source and vet them into portfolios curated by trend, region and demo.

  3. our organizers weave your brand into their events naturally.

  4. frequency, habit and support build into trust and preference.

  5. we deliver stats, photos and insights in your impact report.

check out some of our curated portfolios.

you don't buy one room, the same way you don't buy one stock. we bundle communities and fandoms into portfolios.

what your support funds, who it reaches, how the room responds, and where every dollar goes.
both things are true

yes, it's marketing.
also a 501c3.

your dollars fund real gatherings, the venue, the coffee, the room that keeps a group alive. organizers thank you for it. a movement and a marketing channel, at the same time. no asterisk.

A collage from one funded quarter: club gatherings, hand-made event flyers, and the organizers' own posts about them.
working toward our mission
91%

of every dollar goes to the work.

we operate lean. ninety-one cents of every dollar underwritten goes straight to the mission: community grants, programmatic materials, and unboxing joy into the world every day.

When you're keeping a local club alive, you learn fast that no bit of help is too small. Communities Inc is one of the few actually paying attention to groups like ours, and having them in our corner makes a difference.

what to call us for

it comes out of a budget you already have.

brands reach for us under a lot of different line items. every one of these is the right door.

why it lasts

build bonds a bot can't break.

paid reach rents attention. stop paying and you are gone, along with everything you spent. a room compounds instead of resetting. anyone can buy the impression. only one brand gets to be the one that is wanted in the room.

ROI → return on invitation.
