Discover Hope Fund

We're going to a fundraiser tonight for a local non-profit, Discover Hope Fund. This is a micro-credit organization that takes the concept further by focusing their efforts not just on funding entrepreneurial efforts in developing communities, but applying educational and support resources along the way. Their values as stated on their Web site are amazing and am copying them below. Read and I hope you are as inspired by them as I am. This is the kind of world we should all live in.

Igniting Personal Power

We believe that everyone has a fundamental right to give their greatest strengths to the world. We know that when a person is inspired to light their internal and external power, the world changes. Stepping through the door of opportunity takes initiative and courage and commitment to continuous learning. We believe that out of this amazing work, self respect creates a backdrop for constant growth. In turn, future generations see this powerful way of being and integrate this strength into the fabric of their communities. We believe in being change.

Practicing Authenticity

We believe in the sanctuary of integrity and know that our actions resonate out into the world and constitute the type of world we want to help create. We practice authenticity by reflecting what is true for people through listening and actions that honor the foundation of people’s passions. We believe in being awake.

Promoting Abundance

We believe that once personal power is nurtured, the vitality of the entrepreneurial spirit is liberated. When the doors of opportunity are open, we can usher in a life of abundance. This core value is rooted in absolute love framed by compassion and generosity that expands to children, communities and the world. We believe in being hope.
