About Every Name Matters
Every Name Matters (ENM) is a Florida-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit and permanent, technology-enabled public archive dedicated to preserving verified human identities, documented life histories, and source-attributed records across generations and geographies.
Our Mission
We advance public understanding and historical continuity by preserving the verified identities, lived experiences, and source-attributed records of individuals affected by historical events, humanitarian crises, cultural transitions, and periods of significant social change.
What We Do
- Conduct independent, source-verified research into major global occurrences
- Compile accurate timelines, casualty statistics, and contextual data
- Create short explainers, videos, and downloadable source packs
- Maintain a transparent bibliography of primary and secondary sources
- Publish quarterly revenue and donation transparency reports
- Publish short-form content across platforms to reach wide audiences
Our Values
- Verification First — Every fact, name, and claim is backed by credible documentation.
- Human Dignity — We do not sensationalize suffering. Our focus is remembrance, context, and understanding.
- Transparency — Financials, sources, and editorial decisions are open to scrutiny.
- Independence — No corporate sponsors and no political affiliations.
Why This Matters Now
When names are forgotten, lessons are lost, empathy fades, and history repeats. We are here to make sure that does not happen.
