In 2009, Participant Media founded TakePart.com with the belief that a story well told can change the world. For the last eight years, we have done just that. Over the years, we built a community of over 4 million dedicated fans like yourself who have helped take over 20 million actions on our site.
As the digital landscape evolves, Participant recognized it, too, must evolve. For that reason, TakePart is ceasing operations.
But while the site is shutting down, we’re not done fighting to change the world. Participant remains dedicated to addressing the world's most pressing issues and we are excited to share that we’re unveiling something new in 2017. For the latest updates, follow Participant at the handles below.
Thank you for being part of the community!

PepsiCo, the owner of Lays and Walkers potato chips, launched 50 in 5 in the United Kingdom five years ago. The program aims to reduce the carbon and water footprints of the company's potato supply by 50 percent in five years. To achieve that goal, the soda and snack giant needed to work closely with nonprofits, develop new technologies to convince farmers to change their practices. They managed to do it and are looking to expand the program. See what it takes for one of the world’s largest food companies to make a significant reduction in their carbon footprint.

Ann Makosinski invented the Hollow Flashlight (a flashlight that generates power from body heat). She was inspired when she heard her friend from the Philippines failed school because there wasn't enough light for her to study.
