GROWING GARDENS

Let your garden grow.

Your path starts here, with resources for every step.

Our Mission

Our mission is to connect essential resources to underserved communities through a foundation of justice, empowerment, and advocacy. We aim to create a supportive environment using a trauma-informed approach, recognizing the harsh impacts of generational trauma while emphasizing safety, trust, and healing.

Our focus is two key aspects of community healing: prevention and recovery. We aim to champion early interventions to prevent health and social challenges from becoming crises while supporting those affected in rebuilding stability and resilience. Our vision is a country where everyone has equal support to succeed.

Community Impact

Founded in 2022, GG Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to strengthening communities and promoting tailored versions of a balanced lifestyle. We host events that support local schools, universities, and community members through wellness activities, donation drives, and virtual events.

We have organized five clothing drives, assisting hundreds of people in need! Our organization hosts events at universities and community centers, including Rio Grande College, Miami University, and Ohio State University. Some of the community events we attend are cultural celebrations like Juneteenth, children’s festivals, and community wellness gatherings.

WHO WE ARE

INTRODUCTION TO THE ORGANIZATION

The garden is a metaphor that represents one’s mind – a messy and beautiful life-long project. The endless journey of self-growth is not linear – just as you must put in lots of work before seeing fruit from your labor. Every season comes with its own highs and lows. When unexpected disasters hit, it might seem like you have to start from scratch. Except you are stronger now with more experience, you have more developed insight and better tactics to help you succeed.

At the heart of everything we do is a simple belief: every person has an irreplaceable purpose on this planet. Your value is unwavering regardless of your abilities, background, work status, or personal beliefs. We strive to build a supportive community where individuals in various seasons of life can access affordable services and free resources. GG Inc. empowers communities through sustainable initiatives that foster resilience, mental wellness, stability, and growth. Our mission is to provide underserved individuals navigating the hardships of life with inclusive, affordable services such as advocacy programs, adult education, and peer-led mental health support.

By addressing key social determinants of health, we strive to create holistic solutions that promote healing with a lasting impact. Our recent efforts include events to provide essential resources to those in need, university partnerships to host wellness activities, and collaborative projects with local organizations to expand community services. Additionally, our virtual events ensure that individuals across the region can access peer support, advocacy workshops, and educational opportunities regardless of location. Through partnerships and community-driven efforts, our organization continues to plant seeds of change and build stronger, more resilient local communities.
