PEP revolutionizes prison reentry with a pathway from poverty to prosperity for lasting economic impact.

The mission of Prison Entrepreneurship Program (PEP) is to unite executives and inmates through entrepreneurial passion and servant leadership to transform lives, restore families, and rebuild communities.

Established in 2004, PEP disrupts the cycle of poverty and incarceration plaguing marginalized communities in Houston and Dallas, Texas. Using values-based education, holistic reentry services, and entrepreneurship empowerment, we transform men, strengthen their families, and rebuild communities for inclusive and lasting economic impact.

Our revolutionary Survive to Thrive model is a data-supported pathway to economic mobility with measurable outcomes and impacts confirmed by multiple third-party verifications:

- Average speed to employment of 30 days post-release (100% employment in 90 days),
- Average starting wages above the low-income threshold (<=50% AMI),
- Post-release wage growth to moderate-income (50 to 80% AMI) at year one and to middle-income (80 to 120% AMI) at year 3,
- 46 percent home ownership,
- 700+ businesses started,
- $1.6M in client-owned business loan originations; and
- Two-thirds reduction in 3-year recidivism.

PEP is entering a pivotal phase of growth; by enhancing our technology and strengthening our curriculum, we aim to expand our impact until every inmate truly committed to change has the opportunity to reboot his life.

Our Beginnings

Tigray Disaster Relief Fund is an international charitable 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization.  The organization was founded in 2018 by a group of young professional diaspora Tigrayans in response to an increase in Tigrayan displacement from various parts of Ethiopia.

We got to work in 2018, providing immediate relief and support to families being uprooted because of ethnic conflict and political violence across different Ethiopian regions.

To be effective, TDRF mobilized efforts to collaborate with stakeholders on the ground in Tigray, while partnering with various organizations, such as the Bureau of Labor and Social Affairs of Tigray (BOLSA) and Keradion Elders Support Association.

Unfortunately, our work has only become more urgent since November 4, 2020.

The people of Tigray have been subjected to every imaginable weapon of war, including rape, famine, looting, and damage. The massive loss of life and grim picture of starving and brutalized residents slowly pouring out of Tigray have devastated TDRF. It's past time for us to step up our efforts. But we can't do it by ourselves. We require strengthened partnerships, as well as other concerned individuals from other walks of life and donors.

1 Step Further Community Center Inc is a nonprofit organization focused on providing human services, in Saint Johns, Arizona.

1 Step FCC was founded in 2018, In the hopes of providing for underprivileged individuals and families. 

Since moving our organization from, Sugar Land Texas to Saint John's AZ in 2024, we've surveyed important human needs. One is water here in rural Arizona. 

Underprivileged individuals and families currently do not have access to water, and we want to change that. Clean running water is the number one important source of a healthy life. Families can prepare hot meals, take a good hot bath, and keep their hygiene up. Many individuals have no reliable way to and from doctors' appointments, or a suitable way to grocery stores to get food is also equally important. 

Having actual reliable running water, via-well systems is imperative to one's vital health, to obtain a good quality of life.
