About us

Our Purpose

In a world full of bad news, we bring attention to

Impactful stories of positive change.

Purpose Stories was born out of the desire to tell stories that help address pressing social and environmental challenges.

We develop cross-media campaigns and films for projects and companies that authentically and courageously drive positive social change.

We don't just tell stories of people, but with them — participatory and on equal footing.
