live a purposeful life.
We bring non-profits and funders together, through common causes, to build healthy and sustainable communities for future generations.
Our Causes
Homelessness and Housing.
In our current climate, homelessness can mean many things. From disabled individuals who have made the streets their home for decades to families who experience temporary homelessness throughout the year, we have a proprietary partnership aimed at eradicating homelessness through direct services and community coordination.
Anti-Human Trafficking.
This modern-day slavery is a multi-billion dollar criminal industry, trading humans for forced labor or sexual exploitation. Tens of millions of humans, including children, each year are bought and sold against their will. This is a 21st-century pandemic that truly has no borders. This is about our basic right to freedom and we are determined to prevail.
