About The Climate Commons Incubator
The Climate Commons Incubator exists to help Colorado’s climate nonprofits scale their fundraising & multiply their impact.
In a time of rising climate urgency—and shrinking federal support—local action is more essential than ever.
We’re building a new model of climate funding: one powered by people, not politics. Through our Campaign Incubator & growing donor activist network, we help nonprofits activate their communities, raise grassroots funding & build the financial resilience to sustain their work for the long haul.
Who We Are
The Climate Commons was founded by Alexis Rhyner, a climate fundraising strategist with 12+ years of global nonprofit experience and an MBA in Corporate Sustainability & Greenhouse Gas Management.
Frustrated by the reckless anti-climate actions of the current administration—and watching too many nonprofits suffer as a result—Alexis created The Climate Commons to help Colorado’s climate leaders unlock their next level of impact using proven fundraising strategies and an entrepreneurial mindset.
Alexis is always looking to collaborate with others working toward bold, creative climate solutions. If you’re dreaming up something audacious in the climate space, let’s connect.
