Our Mission
We believe that our differences are our strengths and that working in harmony is humanity’s natural state. We defend that all humans desire security, respect, and to be seen. Our mission is to build and maintain a community where everyone feels welcome to thrive, using age-old tools of connection and compassion.
​
-
Education, so factual information can crowd out misinformation
-
Communication, so we can build relationships within our community and remember that humans are all inherently good
-
Recreation, so that we can feel the joy of our work
-
Philanthropy, so we can carry as we climb
-
Ceaseless curiosity, so that we never stop to judge, but instead understand
