Reminds me of what's written in Seth Godin's Tribes (I think everyone should read it) as he also touches on joining pre-existing tribes that share your goal.
“The big win is in turning donors into patrons and activists and participants. The biggest donors are the ones who not only give, but also do the work…. It means opening yourself up to volunteers and encouraging them to network, to connect with one another…It means mixing it up with volunteers so they have something at stake.” (p.99)
