COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

MISSION

​

We have a sister Community and Economic Development Corporation (YesUCan!) with a mission to bring hope to the hopeless, destination to the lost, and power to those who have felt far too long that they are powerless to change the circumstances which have held them down.

YesUCan! is a social enterprise that will identify needs within low income households cross-culturally and locally in NYC, across the U.S. and internationally, and empower these communities in ways that will help them improve the quality of life.

We also want to assist under-resourced neighborhoods in NYC to improve their communities by offering reference resources to local residents in job searching skills and entrepreneurial skills, providing low income housing referall resources, and to also engage in activities which are necessary, suitable or convenient for the accomplishment of that purpose, or which are incidental thereto or connected therewith which are consistent with Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The purposes for which this corporation is organized are exclusively religious and charitable within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or the corresponding provision of any future United States Internal Revenue law.
