We’re not afraid to do the improbable around here. I managed to become a professional athlete with virtually no athletic ability. Later, started a gym in a park and convinced scores of people that it was a real gym before it had an address. Soon after we turned a hundred year old garage into a globally regarded training facility with virtually no respectable amenities. Lately, we beat out a cash flush millionaire developer to save our property from becoming 55 apartments.
This is all a walk in the park compared to starting our non-profit.
Campbell and I used a truck load of piss and vinegar to create DEUCE Community Inc. and we’ve done the impossible. We’ve had remarkable success transforming the lives of highly motivated individuals who are justice system, housing, and/or substance impacted. Specifically, we’ve had remarkable success with men finishing long term prison sentences who are reentering society.
Along the way we decided that we couldn’t be successful without our own housing program. As a result, we have a home in Santa Monica, CA that houses the most motivated folks in our program.
Our non-profit housing is nearly financially sustainable with small, private donations!
If you are interested in supporting our improbable rise to success changing lives of motivated men and women, please consider joining our Housing Brigade. Donating just $5 or $12 per month would put us closer to a fully sustainable housing solution. We’re about $1300 away and need your help!
