Membership Pathways
An Invitation to Go Deeper
Membership in the Dark Horse Project is not required to participate in the Dark Horse Network.
Membership exists for those who feel aligned with the mission and want to support, engage with, or help shape the ecosystem in a more intentional way.
This page is here to provide clarity around the different membership pathways—so individuals can choose the level of involvement that best fits how they want to participate.
All Dark Horse Project memberships include:
Access to the Dark Horse Network
Participation in a values-driven, growth-oriented ecosystem
Opportunities for meaningful connection, collaboration, and contribution
Alignment with a long-term vision focused on integrity, sustainability, and impact
The distinction between membership pathways is not about access—it’s about engagement, responsibility, and contribution.
Supporting Members

Supporting Members believe in the mission of the Dark Horse Project and want to contribute to its growth and sustainability.
This pathway is ideal for individuals who:

This pathway is for those who:
Are deeply aligned with the mission and its enduring impact
Think in decades and value long-term stewardship
Want to participate at a capital, governance, and strategic level

Membership pathways are intentionally designed to support different levels of involvement.
Some individuals choose to support the mission immediately through a self-serve membership. Others explore deeper engagement through group participation or strategic stewardship.
In every case, the goal is alignment—between the individual, the community, and the long-term vision of the Dark Horse Project.
When alignment is clear, the next step becomes obvious.
If one of these pathways resonates, choose the option that best reflects how you’d like to engage.
There is no pressure to move beyond what feels aligned—each membership path plays an important role in supporting what we’re building.
