Mission Statement
Think clearly and write with clarity is our battle cry, our tagline, our mantra. It's served as our mission statement since our launch in 2009. Not everyone--as is so strikingly apparent of late--thinks clearly. And even fewer people express themselves with clarity. But for those who nail both clarity of thought and expression, a lifetime of Mightiness is available for the taking. We're believers in the power of writing. But when Covid began to strangle our Mighty communities, our mission suddenly needed amending. You can't think or write with clarity if you're hungry. We then launched our Lunch & Literacy program and it is still going strong.
