Q: What is the goal of OneAreWe?
We live in a time with increasing social, economic and environmental challenges. OneAreWe believes that during these times, we will either compete for scarce resources or collaborate for the common good and thrive. Our marketplace strives to become an integral part of a sustainable economy. Some call it “Conscious Capitalism” or “Values-Based Consumerism” but we just think this model makes sense. We have lofty goals but understand that it is only through engaging with diverse communities and focusing on individual needs that we can be successful. We value your support towards this mission.
