United Against Hate Week

What United Against Hate Week does

United Against Hate Week is a non-profit civic advocacy initiative founded in 2017 in Oakland, California, in response to white supremacist rallies in Berkeley and San Francisco. The organization operates an annual coordinated week of action — scheduled for October 18-24, 2026 — during which participating cities, schools, faith communities, nonprofits, and individuals organize events, display posters, take pledges, and promote inclusion through hashtags (#UnitedAgainstHateWeek, #UNselfie) across social media. The campaign is affiliated with and operationally housed under Not In Our Town (The Working Group Not In Our Town), which serves as the core organizing partner.

The initiative distributes a suite of free, downloadable resources including a Community Action Toolkit, Action Kit for Schools, City Toolkit, Library Toolkit, Film Guide, Digital Promotion Toolkit, posters, graphics, coloring books, and webinar content. A video campaign features endorsements from California state officials, US Representatives, district attorneys, and community leaders. The coalition includes four lead partners (Not In Our Town, LA vs Hate, California vs Hate, CA STOP THE HATE) and participating national/regional organizations such as the National Civic League, League of California Cities, and Cook County United Against Hate. Reach spans California, Illinois, Utah, and Florida, with over 200 communities and 90+ organizations participating.

United Against Hate Week's business model is donation-funded through Give Lively, with all resources provided at no cost to participants. There are no disclosed revenue figures, no paid pricing tiers, and no venture or equity capital. Headcount is reported at 1-10 employees, consistent with a lean campaign operation that scales impact through partner leverage rather than internal headcount growth. The core product is the campaign itself, supported by complementary resources that enable local communities to organize their own anti-hate activations and link to the California vs Hate Hotline (833-8-NO-HATE) for incident reporting in over 200 languages.
