as the pillars of society-- environmental preservation, social development and economic development.
While we salute the many organizations that have a more selective and focused approach, such as the stewardship environmental organizations and the economic development agencies, we believe it beneficial for society to have some organizations that work on the community as a whole.
That is why we try to engage in programs and services that integrate more than one aspect of life. Our newest set of programs, for example, will help the environment by providing a low carbon footprint means of dealing with organic waste while creating new jobs for youth that have experienced homelessness or mental health issues, thereby benefiting economic and social development. These programs will involve the youth transporting compost from offices and restaurants on an electric cargo tricycle, which we hope to model in our community as an environmentally friendly means of transporting goods and performing services.
We hope you will stay tuned to this space to see how we roll out these programs over the next few months.
Our mission is to connect people to their community and to spread knowledge of how we can live so that all beings can thrive. We are grateful to the volunteers and funding organizations that make this possible.
