  2. Is…. • The Community HUB™ is a social venture which combines the passion of a social mission with an image of business-like discipline, innovation, and determination • The HUB aims to facilitate the development of especially youth, through the offering of technology, arts, environmental and enterprise-based programming relevant to the current local cultural and socio-economic realities of the areas in which we operate. “We believe the young people must want to live first, before we can teach them math and english” (Bill Strickland)

  3. Our BeliefsEnvironment is Important • “We believe that if we have nurturing environments, we should also have nurturing people.” Bill Strickland CEO Manchester Bidwell Corporation • We model respect for the people we serve, provide well trained staff, value inclusiveness, and act as role models, mentors and way-makers. • We also seek to provide hands-on education esp. to young people w.r.t the natural environmental; influencing deeper values and shaping behaviors toward a more environmentally friendly stance “ The environmental crisis is an outward manifestation of a crisis of mind and spirit” (Lynton K Caldwell)

  4. Our BeliefsTechnology prepares us for the future • “While technology has the potential to act as a great leveler, it can also be a dramatic amplifier of inequality”.* • Technology provides: • The tools of literacy in the modern world • Platforms for self-expression • Access to knowledge and awareness • Communication/information exchange * Quote from Community HUB Strategic Plan (2008)

  5. Our BeliefsEnterprise makes us sustainable • “we seek to build higher-order employability, thinking, problem solving and decision-making skills, and social skills such as dependability, positive attitude and cooperativeness.”* • Enterprise builds: • Collaboration, teamwork, organization and time-management skills • an appreciation of the interdependency among individuals, communities and the environment * Quote from Community HUB Strategic Plan (2008)

  6. Our BeliefsArt makes us human • “HUBs will offer to our clients an atmosphere and environment of discovery giving them the opportunity to develop their innate abilities to critically think, invent and improvise”. • Art teaches: • Self expression and the creative process • Sense of confidence and accomplishment • Innovative, analytical and critical thinking • Ways to connect and communicate with society * Quote from Community HUB Strategic Plan (2008)

  7. Our Theory of Change • We believe that if we offer attractive programming facilitated by professional and committed staff in the context of a nurturing and well equipped environment that participants will respond positively, and will be given the opportunity to transform their lives - permanently. • These transformations can move from a personal through to the community and national level.

  8. We need your Support! "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Edmund Burke • “One of the problems with the current societal and economic paradigm is that inherently, the world’s best people (and resources) aren’t matched with the world’s biggest problems”.Atiba Phillips
