An intimate learning community that explores our source of passion and leverages it for the common good.

Crave Leaders

Our Purpose

Crave builds skills and networks for grassroots change-makers through a life-long learning community.

What We Do

We build management skills, expand networks, and propagate a culture of meaning-making.

Core Tenets

Food

First, food meets our craving and fills the soul when shared with friends. Shabbat. Iftar. Eucharist. Food is the manifestation of the overlapping space between sacred/secular.

Skills

Second, skills that emerging leaders need, have, and want more of are agreed upon by the group. Throughout the year, the group will field trip, meet amazing people, and be exposed to resources that will expand and deepen the toolbox for their work.

Skills Like These:

Welcome | Funding | Being | Innovation | Scaling | Overcoming | Leading

Network

Third, network is critical when raising funds, expanding a non-profit, recruiting volunteers, or taking it to the next level. Crave offers intimate, relevant connections to a pool of community learning partners who deeply desire to "elder" the next generation of leaders and their projects by asking loving and thoughtful questions.

Community

Fourth, sacred community with amazing people of passion, knowledge, commitment, and inspired leadership is built on authenticity, vulnerability, and shared values. In this space, Crave explores who we are, why we're here, and all about that Something More that drives, inspires, frustrates, and elevates. Sacred community is a safe place to unpack what we've been given about the Divine, why it works or doesn't, and potentially piece together a new view/language/paradigm that does resonate with today, our leadership, and the work we're called to do.

Every couple of weeks connect with someone who has the resources, knowledge, and contacts you need. They show up to support your growth, your project, and the people you serve.

A Crave Candidate…

Holy Discontent:

there's something just not right, it necessitates a response, and it drives your life agenda.

Charisma:

other people see you are up to something grand, and want to be a part of it too.
