Our Mission
Exodus Impact is a planned social-educational impact project that aims to transform forced migration narratives into tangible actions: education, job inclusion, mental health, and sustainable development. As the operational continuation of Exodus & Resilience, we intend to convert artistic stories into programs that generate real change.
Currently, our activities are limited to social media diffusion and team-building, as we await funding through our targeted fiscal sponsor to launch formal operations.

How We Work
(Phased, Evidence-Informed)
Pre-Launch: Our global team is focused on social media diffusion, phased volunteer onboarding, and tracking resources. No formal programs have launched yet.
Currently: Limited to diffusion efforts; seeking local partnerships and pilot rollout once funded.
Art: Start with cultural narratives that humanize migration (inspired by Exodus & Resilience).
Action: Translate empathy into education, inclusion, and development (planned programs).
Indicators: Measurable impact with shared outcomes across countries (to be implemented post-funding).
Global Volunteer Team
We are a collective of volunteers from across the globe — artists, communicators, researchers, and creatives — working together to elevate voices of displacement with empathy and dignity.
Nicole Keller (USA)
Project Manager
Growing up in various states of the US has brought me to recognize and appreciate the diversity of this country. Migrants deserve to share their personal stories; that’s what makes this country the great melting pot that it is. I enjoy working with a team from a variety of different countries because it impacts my own personal views in a way that working with only a team from the US could not.

Curatorial Research & SDG Strategy
My own family migrated to the U.S. — so this is personal. I want to help Exodus & Resilience communicate with the humanity these stories deserve.
Growing up in India, I saw how easily voices can be overlooked and how difficult it is for people to access even the most basic tools for change. Moving to a new country amplified my belief in the power of empathy, something I found not just in conversation, but especially in art. Art gives people a chance to tell their stories, to connect, and to heal.
Exodus and Resilience focus on empathy through art, creating platforms that shine a light on resilience and shared humanity. As a Social Media and Communications Strategist, I am passionate about amplifying these voices and helping build spaces where stories spark compassion and action. My experiences as an immigrant drive my commitment to ensuring that creativity and empathy reach those who need it most, turning digital platforms into communities of understanding, belonging, and hope.

Steve Miralles (Venezuela)
Volunteer Coordinator
I’m Eduarda Rameh, part of the Communications & Social Media team at Exodus & Resilience. Coming from a Lebanese and Italian family, I’ve always seen how migration can be both a painful and a beautiful journey of loss, strength, and rebirth. Through this platform, I hope to transform those complex experiences into stories and images that connect hearts across borders.
I’m Moses Abelard Dharmoputro (he/him) and I represent Indonesia, a nation whose resilience is rooted in its diversity; seventeen thousand islands bound by a shared spirit of perseverance and compassion. Shaped by this mosaic of cultures and beliefs, I believe true strength lies in empathy, renewal, and collective endurance. For me, joining the Exodus & Resilience Movement is a way to embody Indonesia’s spirit of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika (Unity in Diversity) by helping rebuild hope, nurture solidarity, and drive transformation in communities rising beyond crisis.
My name is Steve Miralles and I’m in charge of the amazing volunteering work at Exodus and Resilience. As a volunteer myself and as a migrant, refugee, displaced, expat, legal and illegal alien along my life I can relate with every single word written during the making of this wonderful project to bring hope and a place to be heard thru art for millions of people who have been forced to leave their lives, to stand out of their comfort zones and to stop for a second and think, ok, what’s next, where am i going?
We are also currently reviewing applications from over 30 additional volunteers from around the world.
Fiscal Sponsorship & Legal Framework
We are seeking fiscal sponsorship from TIDES Foundation (U.S.), a sponsor for social impact, to enable 100% tax-deductible donations. Planned to operate through Intercontinental Art LLC, with transition to independent 501(c)(3) status. This will ensure transparency in fund management once agreements are finalized.


All future funds will be allocated directly to programs, with annual audits. Currently, no formal funding or sponsorship is in place; we are focused on pre-launch diffusion while evaluating options.
We complement the artistic focus of Exodus & Resilience under Fractured Atlas / By Sibarita LLC.
We are currently evaluating U.S. fiscal sponsorship options with TIDES Foundation. No agreement has been signed at this time.

Our Shared Vision
Art → Empathy → Action.
Exodus & Resilience curates the stories; we convert them into social legacy.
Multi-Country Model (Phased Rollout)
We plan to activate multi-country partnerships, resources, and measurement once funded. This phased approach ensures transparency and compliance.
Shared metrics:
comparable indicators by country.
Economies of scale:
centralized ops and content.
Cross-border visibility:
recognition across all active editions.
Transfer of practice:
pilots in one country inform the others.

Exodus & Resilience and Exodus Impact are independent but interconnected initiatives founded by Omar Bustillos.
Each operates under its own legal and fiscal structure — Exodus & Resilience through Fractured Atlas / By Sibarita LLC; Exodus Impact seeking TIDES / Intercontinental Art LLC (in process). — within one common vision: To turn empathy into legacy.
A full professional version will launch with the resources generated by the initiative.
