Community Light Bearing
Empowering individuals to become beacons of light in their communities through education, service, and spiritual development centers across America
Healing Returns
Have your investments ever supported industries that left harm in their wake—whether to people, communities, or the planet? Healing Returns offers a way to turn those gains into something good: a chance to nurture growth, restore balance, and support meaningful change.
This campaign encourages investors to channel their profits away from toxic industries and instead invest in healing and renewal. Together, we can transform financial returns into community well-being, environmental restoration, and lasting positive impact.

The Community Projects
Government-funded 'projects,' are areas that are often established as test beds for policies that too frequently result in exploitation or neglect. Today, we seek to empower ALL communities and reframe these histories. The communities known as 'the projects' are not symbols of deficiency but living proofs of perseverance—the test grounds for resilience.
