Do you know your neighbors? No, I don't mean saying 'hi" every once in a while when you see them outside- I mean, really know your neighbors, to the point where you wouldn't be afraid to ask them for something you need, let them babysit your child or have them over for dinner.
Chances are, the answer is no. That's what we're trying to fix- our mission is to build friendlier, happier, more sustainable and abundant self-sufficient communities that save money.
Times are tough for a lot of people, and nothing brings people together like a good old fashioned free giveaway. CNN may say that our economy has recovered, but for many of us, it just doesn't feel the same. Really, what changed? Most still have to work hard only to barely scrape by, while the top 1% get richer and richer off of everyone elses's contributions. Even if you're lucky enough to have a nice, well paying job, you still have to march to someone else's beat. Something's missing..

The Global Assembly believes that we all have natural, god-given talents. We also believe that everyone should be able to use their talents to not just survive, but thrive.
When we unite to work together as a community, each of us doing what we love- you'll be amazed at how much we can accomplish and how fast we can accomplish it.
This is how things are meant to be- and how they were not too long ago. We weren't meant to waste 40 years of our life as 9 to 5 corporate wage slaves. Our goal is to develop, then implement a set of community-based programs and solutions which allow everyone to work less, work together and have more of what matters.

In a short and uncertain life, time is our most valuable resource. Everyone deserves the freedom to use it the way they see fit. This isn't a fantasy or unattainable dream. We have a real plan, one with achievable, step-by-step goals that anyone can accomplish. Want to learn more? Click this.
These free giveaways are only the beginning- an icebreaker, if you will. By creating active, friendly and local gift economies, neighbors feel more comfortable talking to each other and working together to make their community a better place. We can move on to bigger and better projects like community supper clubs, clean energy solar co-ops and open schools which make learning or sharing skills free and easy for people of all ages. Who knows, we may even end up creating an entirely new economy that works better for everyone. Either way, there's only one way to find out. Why not join us?
