Celebrating 15 Years

Fifteen years ago, The Story of Stuff premiered on a young social media platform called YouTube. Annie’s 20-minute animated exploration of where our Stuff comes from and where it goes when we throw it away became an iconic online film beloved by millions around the world.

The steadfast partnership of friends like you is one of the main reasons why our team still carries on the spirit of the original Story of Stuff all these years later: telling stories that illuminate the social and environmental costs of our relationship with Stuff; fielding campaigns that mobilize our Community members, viewers and others to meaningful action; and bringing together diverse partners, grassroots groups and underrepresented communities, to achieve our shared goals.

So we'd like to invite you to join us once again in this work. Your financial support makes everything we do possible and for that we are grateful. Thank You!
