The system has failed. We're not waiting. We're strapping on our boots and doing the work ourselves. Land: acquired. Designs: needed. Let's build.
We made a decision: We would no longer wait for a government that wouldn't step up. Community Forge was born from that refusal. It was built on a simple, radical idea: we are the ones we've been waiting for.
We operate on three non-negotiable principles:
- No Government or Corporate Money. We are not for sale. Our allegiance is to the community, not to a funder's agenda.
- No Red Tape. There is no bureaucracy here. No endless forms, no months-long waits, no hoops to jump through. We are real people helping real people.
- The Speed of Need. We move at the pace that crisis demands. When a neighbor is hungry, we get them food. When they need shelter, we work to provide a bed. Not next week. Now.
We are not a charity. We are a mutual aid network. We are your neighbors, tired of the talk and ready for the work. We have our boots on the ground, doing what needs to be done.
This isn't a plea. It's a call. The work is hard, but it is honest. It is urgent, but it is healing. We are building a world where no one is left behind, and we are building it ourselves, block by block, meal by meal, person by person.
