      Work First Foundation is a non- profit co. focused on people and work. The work that we do everyday shapes who we are and who we will become. The difference between rewarding work and a job that "pays the bills" cannot be understated. Many people feel forced to tolerate toxicity at work because of financial need. We need quality employment.Our youth have to be shown that business is more rewarding than crime. It is our duty as a society to bring business leadership to our kids.Single parents need access to competitive earnings that open new doors for their family and create personal agency. This gives women a path forward, out of poverty, out of abusive relationships and into financial independence.Depression, isolation and a premature death are what our senior citizens can face when they lose the community and sense of purpose that comes with work. The feeling of value and connection that comes from helping others is one of the things that people truly need. A well conceived, part-time or full-time business can bring vitality, purpose and financial prosperity. At Work First, we believe that what we do should be more about people. The workforce is evolving faster today than ever in history. On an individual level, we are better connected and more empowered by our tools than ever before - and this trend is only getting started.We want the Work First Foundation to help individuals, businesses and not-for-profit organizations empower themselves and their clients to leverage the tools and business trends of today. We are committed to help our partners increase productivity, efficiency and reduce obstacles to success. If we can empower people with business technology and facilitate peer-supported social structures, I believe that we can be a transformational force in business.Work First Foundation is an Alberta venture focused on creating opportunity through business. Let's change the conversation around access to business and a healthy social community. Show less
