Entrepreneurship for All (EforAll) is accelerating economic and social impact through entrepreneurship in mid-sized cities.
Our Approach
At EforAll we believe that the best way to revitalize mid- sized U.S. cities that have fallen into decline and suffer related high rates of poverty and unemployment, is to fuel the dreams and ambitions of entrepreneurs who live in and near these cities. We believe that they understand their city and its problems better than anyone else and have ideas and solutions with the potential to make their city prosper once again while they create their own pathway out of poverty.
Our Values
- Inclusivity: We believe that aspiring entrepreneurs of all backgrounds should have the greatest opportunity for success
- Empathy: We honor the challenging path of the entrepreneur and support their success
- Collaboration: We contribute our individual part to create a greater whole for the fulfillment of our mission
- Respect: We treat each other honestly and fairly
- Performance: We measure our results to verify and improve our impact
- Drive: We encourage new ideas and approaches, and challenge ourselves to continually improve our operations
