Stand Together
Stand Together is a name of a network of non-profits funded by Charles Koch and other individuals previously known as
The Seminar Network. It was reorganized and renamed in 2019. The founding CEO is Brian Hooks.
A previous constellation of organizations with a similar name had been created by Charles Koch to support community groups addressing poverty, addiction, recidivism, gang violence and homelessness. That effort continued under the Stand Together Foundation.
In a speech in January 2019 in Palm Springs, Charles Koch had signaled he would shift away from partisan politics and focus on goals that cut across ideologies. Stand Together is considered a manifestation of those stated intentions. Charles Koch is considered less political than his brother, David Koch.
