More than 1 in 4 Americans have been targeted by online fraud, harassment, or exploitation.
But most don’t talk about it — and even fewer get help.

Online safety feels confusing, inaccessible, and out of touch. Basic cybersecurity education is locked behind paywalls. Most support is written in language no one understands. And too many people feel ashamed for not knowing how to protect themselves.

Cyber Collective gives people the tools, language, and support to stay safe online. Our work is built with and for the communities most impacted by online harm — not dropped in from the top down.
Our flagship digital safety program — co-created with 50+ volunteers.
ISS teaches teens, caregivers, and educators how to spot scams, set boundaries, and navigate the internet with confidence. It’s trauma-informed, story-driven, and actually makes sense.
Hands-on workshops that bring our tools to life — hosted in schools, libraries, and local community spaces.

We’ve created over 150 free resources to help you navigate digital life with confidence — no tech degree required.
From scam-spotting guides and password journals to workshop slides and conversation starters, everything we make is designed to be clear, accessible, and actually useful. Whether you're a student, caregiver, teacher, or community organizer, you’ll find tools that meet you where you are — and help you protect the people you love.
We’re equipping trusted community leaders to teach ISS and other tools their way. This model helps us scale safely, sustainably, and locally — so digital safety becomes a neighborhood skill, not just a personal one.

Meet Magdalene.
She’s in her 60s. A widow. Living in Queens. Still full of life.
Looking for connection, she joined a dating app. She met someone who sent her poetry, talked about their future, and slowly gained her trust. Over six months, she sent him $7,000.
Then — he vanished.
Magdalene isn’t an anomaly.
She’s one of thousands who experience cybercrime not just as financial loss, but as emotional trauma.
Research shows that cybercrime victims experience anxiety, PTSD, and shame on par with survivors of violent crime.
Most people never report what happened. They blame themselves. And they’re left without tools, language, or community to process the harm.
This is why Cyber Collective exists — to make sure Magdalene, and everyone like her, is never
alone again.
Your donation helps us offer free resources, workshops, and trainings to the communities most impacted by online harm.
Together, we can turn safety into something shared — not sold.
