About Every Name Matters
Every Name Matters is a Florida-based nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the human stories behind global events through rigorous research, statistical analysis, and meticulous documentation.
Our Mission
We advance public understanding and empathy by foregrounding the names, lived experiences, and verifiable records of people affected by conflict, natural disasters, economic disruption, social unrest, cultural festivals, sports incidents, and other world events.
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.
