OUR GIFTING CULTURE
Home for Humanity and the One Home Journey nurture a culture
of gifting and reciprocity. We operate as a Gift Economy.
We are grounded in the philosophy of shared abundance encoded in Nature.
We aspire to function as a regenerative, supportive and inclusive family of life.
We warmly welcome all supporters: gifters, donors, sponsors, benefactors, and friends
to join the Home for Humanity family, participate in the One Home Journey,
and offer your gifts as a lasting legacy for our shared Earth home.
A true Home is based on the mutual bonds of care and responsibility. A home is regenerative when each family member cares for the whole, and seeks to give back what he/she received
in terms of a sense of belonging and unconditional support for his or her flourishing.
We invite all visitors and participants in our One Home UnivEARTHsity programs to offer
a gift of reciprocity, according to your capacity, to carry forward what you've received.
Your gifts are invaluable for Home for Humanity and the One Home Journey to support Homes for Humanity and Changemakers on the ground, to support fellowships for deserving participants, and to help fulfil Home for Humanity’s mission together.
Home for Humanity seeks to embed the culture of gifting, and a Gift Economy into all aspects of its functioning and warmly invites your participation to make this manifest.
Home for Humanity, the One Home Journey and the One Home UnivEARTHsity exist
as a gift of unconditional love for and service to humanity and all life on our home planet
of its founders.
Our co-founders find fulfilment in their life purpose of recognising and nurturing the whole being and unique gifts of each individual who enters and take joy in opening their home
as a gift to humanity, in service of our Earth Home.
Our co-founding members, pioneers and partner organizations give lovingly of their time and expertise to nurture its growth, based on their spontaneous allegiance to this vision, place and community that continually nurtures them.
The Home for Humanity team is comprised of former students, programme alumni and pioneering co-creators who feel drawn to ‘give back’ the inspiration and encouragement they themselves received to support their transformative journeys.
To give maximum place to this culture of gifting, reciprocity and abundance, we keep operational costs minimal. We ensure that every gift received, however modest or large, whether in cash or kind is of maximum benefit to the community at large and makes the optimal contribution to the realization of our shared vision. In return, we support the flourishing of the unique gifts and talents of each gifter.
Your presence, your participation and your gifts are invaluable
for the Home for Humanity family.
OPERATING PHILOSOPHY AND PRACTICE
Home for Humanity operates today as a non-profit organisation, grounded in a gifting philosophy.
As a non-profit initiative, we seek to have a life-affirming, positive and regenerative impact on humanity, nature, culture, education, systems and spirituality, mirroring all the integral dimensions of the Humanity Charter.
The concept and practice of a regenerative, integral initiative is based on the transformative theory and practice developed by TRANS4M through its hands-on work with pioneering initiatives, organisations (including universities) and enterprises on all continents, which is encapsulated in the Routledge “Transformation and Innovation” Book Series, an in particular in the volume Integral Development: Realising the Transformative Potential of Self, Organisation and Society (Schieffer & Lessem, Routledge 2014).
