Upgrade for Impact

Even the most active members of the SuperCrowd are seldom aware of all we’re doing. Together, we’re having fun and making a difference in the world.

For just a bit of context, The Super Crowd, Inc. (TSCI), a public benefit corporation, publishes the Superpowers for Good newsletter you’re reading now, produces the Superpowers for Good twice-weekly Streaming TV show and the quarterly Superpowers for Good Live Pitch specials, hosts events, including SuperCrowdLA and SuperCrowd25, and conducts monthly webinars called Superpowers for Good. TSCI also publishes my books. and I comprise the team, but everything we do is with the support of a growing community of SuperCrowd members.

Let’s review what’s coming up. It’s a lot. It’s exciting. You don’t want to miss any of it!
