Application to Join Bloom as a Local Hub

This form helps you create a Local Bloom page for your area, connecting individuals and projects to Bloom Network. Whether you're just starting or already have an initiative, we have resources to support you at every stage.

✅ Not all fields are required, but the more you fill out, the easier it is for others to find and join your community.

🔎 Check first! See if a Local Bloom already exists in your area: Local Blooms Directory

If one exists, apply as an individual member instead to share your projects and connect with your local Bloom.

🔐 Log in to get started – this allows you to save and submit your application.

💾 Your progress saves when you click “Save” in each section, so you can return later.

📅 At the end of this form, you'll be asked to schedule an interview with a member of Bloom International, and they will process your application!

Section 2: About Your Project

This helps us understand you and your project's stage so we can provide the best support. Your project serves as the initial anchor for your local hub. Bloom pages are place-based rather than project-based. Over time, other values-aligned people and projects will join, and their posts will appear on this local page.

Section 3: Team Information

Teammates' names

If you have community members in these roles, please enter their names. The purpose of the roles is to support you in building a team for your Bloom so you don't go it alone. Open roles show as "Open" on your page, and people can get in touch to say they're interested in joining your team. This really works!

When we process your application, we'll add your team members as members. This is important for mutual support and our grants program.
