WHO/WHAT IS DESERT CANVAS?
A Community Built Organization That Helps Individuals Create Their Own Reality
HOW?1. Stimulating and Inspiring 2. Supporting and Connecting3. Teaching and Showing
OUR CORE VALUESCo-Creation: We believe nothing is done on your own. Everything is co-created. The sooner you accept that you can’t do everything on your own, the better off you’ll be.
Reciprocation: We believe in the “Heck Yes” on both ends mentality. One person does not have to be getting out ahead. You can both win!
Fun / Adventure: We see life as full of options, and we live in excitement knowing that our lives are always changing.
Authenticity: We are an organization that accepts all cultures, values, and differences. We think for ourselves, and we are genuinely interested in what others have to say.
Passion: We are filled with a constant desire to improve ourselves by doing the things we love, no matter if they are against the status quo. We never settle.
Goals: We believe that happiness lies in the pursuit of worthwhile goals. It is our goal to help you discover more passions and reach far greater goals!
Sustainability: We respect our environment, and we do our best to ensure that humans and nature can co-exist.
THE STATS As stated in Forbes - University of Scranton research suggests that
just 8% of people achieve their New Year’s goals. 1 in 5 Americans suffer from persistent loneliness according to
Huffington Post Science 70% of Americans are unhappy with work according to Gallup US National Library of Medicine found that American Suicide Rate
increased 24% from 1999 to 2014 Over a given period, people who have strong ties to family, friends, or
coworkers have a 50 percent greater chance of outliving those with fewer social connections,” Gupta wrote on Oprah’s website last year.
MOST PEOPLE...
1. Do not have a supportive community. 2. Are unhappy with what they are currently doing
