"Rekindling Hope: Guiding the Homeless Back to Community"
In the realm of homelessness, there exists a point where rejoining the community can seem like an insurmountable challenge. But at the Human ECO Life Parks, we're committed to changing that narrative.
Our Mission:
Our mission is twofold: to empower the homeless and to educate the public. We firmly believe in helping those who are willing to help themselves. Volunteers at Human ECO Life Parks receive not just food and shelter but the support to rebuild their lives. Our vision revolves around creating communities where ecology and sustainability provide the fertile ground for self-help. This means acquiring properties, developing housing, and cultivating sustenance through the nurturing of food.
We're all about offering:
A Sanctuary for Humans: A place where individuals can find refuge and rejuvenate their spirits.
A Shelter in the Forest: A safe haven amidst the natural world, where people can rediscover their connection to the environment.
A Wood-Burning Hearth: A symbol of warmth and community, where stories are shared and friendships are forged.
A Rainwater Cistern: An eco-friendly resource, that ensures access to clean water.
A Perennial Food Forest: A source of sustenance, where fresh and organic produce grows abundantly.
Community Sustainability:
Our community is designed to be self-sustaining. We produce various products that we market to create income for our residents. Any unsold products are distributed to those in need or shared with other agencies and groups. This approach not only fosters self-reliance but also promotes a culture of giving back.
Unique Outreach:
Our outreach is distinctive. It's about building connections among volunteers, some of whom are experiencing homelessness, alongside other volunteers and clients. Even our first-time homeless volunteers play a significant role by distributing water to those still on the streets.
Products, Programs, and Services:
Currently, a single dedicated homeless volunteer is distributing water at his own expense. Our next step involves partnering with food banks and other organizations to provide essential resources. Food, an immediate necessity, will be prepared and distributed at our park equipped with a pavilion and grill. As our community grows, we'll expand these efforts to more locations. In the future, we envision selling our own products cultivated within our ECO Life Parks.
Operational Plan:
At this stage, we're actively seeking donated space or funding for office facilities. With a base of operations, we'll focus on legalities, permits, licensing, and insurance, and consult with professionals to fortify our organizational structure.
Impact Plan:
Our vision is to move willing homeless clients to an environment that fosters self-help. This shift will significantly reduce homelessness on the streets. Our homeless clients will have the opportunity to evolve from volunteering for basic needs to securing meaningful, paying jobs.
