Create Abundance

millions of americans ARE desperate for work.
we LIVe with crushing poverty and debt in the richest country in the world.
how can we break this cycle?

people of goodwill across the nation, OF EVERY POLITICAL STRIPE, want to eradicate poverty.
by focusing on our untapped entrepreneurial and consumer power,
we can stop fighting ABOUT OUR POLITICS...and get the job done.

"Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity, it is an act of justice.
Like Slavery and Apartheid, poverty is not natural.
It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings."
~nelson mandela

Building Community Wealth

What is Community Wealth Building? from Democracy Collaborative on Vimeo.

Few Americans are aware of the steady build-up of innovative community wealth building strategies throughout the United States. Community-Wealth.org brings together, for the first time, information about the broad range of community wealth building activity. This serves as a wonderful blueprint for our community building initiatives.
Community-Wealth.org is a project of The Democracy Collaborative. Their commitment is to advance a new understanding of democracy for the 21st century.
