About Us
After the 2008 financial crisis there has been little reform in terms of policy. The failure of the government is in part to our representatives being controlled by big businesses.
Money truly seems to be running the world and we need to do something to fix it. One large problem we face today is the internet. With the web being popular for almost 25 years now, it is a problem that we lose shopping and capitalism to online vendors.

This can be done through philanthropy by people working together to redevelop our world by those with the knowledge of the ever changing world of marketing and business.
