A lot of the goals for my space is to support the community -- both the internal cowork community and the external community in which we're located. We are working on creating a "dress for success" type program where we work with women helping them with resume skills, job etiquette skills, clothing for the interview, and more. We are starting a free cycle group where once a month people can bring in the treasures that they no longer want, and people can pick up things that they want (FREE OF CHARGE). This helps the community and keeps items out of the landfills. We open our spaces to home based businesses on the weekends so that they have a place to showcase their wares -- this also gets people downtown so that the other stores in the downtown business district benefit by foot traffic as well. Have also just started working with the high school and their business class students to provide internships and ways for the kids to put their textbook learning to real world use. There are a lot of community support projects that we're focused on and it's an exciting time!
