About Us

In a world that can feel divided, we believe service brings us back together.

Civic Soul was founded on a simple yet powerful belief: that generosity, kindness, and human connection still matter—and that service can be a joyful way to reclaim them.

By partnering with a wide range of trusted nonprofits, we shine a light on underrecognized causes and provide hands-on opportunities to make a meaningful difference. Every event is carefully curated to spark connection, uplift lives, and leave everyone—volunteer and recipient alike—changed for the better.

At Civic Soul, we don’t believe service is just about what you give. It’s about what you gain: compassion, community, and a renewed sense of purpose.

.Our mission is simple: to make giving back easy, meaningful, and deeply human.

Our Story

Civic Soul began with a simple idea: What if giving back could feel deeply human?

Co-founders Leah and Caitlin met on an international service trip and returned home changed—not just by the people they helped, but by the joy, connection, and purpose they felt through service. They saw a need to bring that same spirit into their own communities.

Together, they launched Civic Soul to make it easier for people to show up, give back, and experience the power of compassion firsthand. What started as a shared passion has grown into a movement—one built on kindness, curiosity, and a belief that everyone has something to offer.
