Mission Statement
At MORE Inc, we're rebuilding lives and communities from the inside out. We believe in the innate potential of every individual and community. Rooted in a deep sense of purpose and driven by passion, our mission transcends mere development -- it's about rejuvenation, empowerment, and sustainable growth. Through a holistic approach, we aim to transform lives, fortify communities, and forge a brighter, more inclusive future for all.
Description
At MORE, Inc, we're dedicated to fostering self-sustaining, empowered communities. A few ways we do that are:
SpaceCraft: youth development initiative that merges STEAM with fashion & social entrepreneurship. Students craft their own sneakers, design apparel, and dive into virtual realities using Meta Quest VR goggles. These activities aren’t just about learning skills; they're about understanding the principles of social entrepreneurship and the impact of creative thinking in business.
MORE Flow: watershed protection project is an artistic and scientific venture with local schools, aiming to enlighten the community about environmental impacts. We believe that understanding these effects fosters a stronger sense of responsibility and a deeper connection to our planet.
The MORE IncUbator: boot camp guides aspiring entrepreneurs. It's a journey to discovering the sweet spot where passion and purpose meet profitable, purpose-driven business ideas. We're molding future business leaders who will drive sustainable, innovative growth in our communities.
Affordable Housing: advocacy, preservation, and development, focusing on ownership opportunities. Understanding the transformative power of real estate, we strive to make wealth-building through property more accessible to historically marginalized and underserved communities. Our efforts here are critical to breaking cycles of poverty and empowering individuals and families to build lasting legacies.
