-  "With the abolition of private property, then, we shall have true, beautiful,
-  healthy Individualism. Nobody will waste his life in accumulating things, and
-  the symbols for things. One will live. To live is the rarest thing in the
-  world. Most people exist, that is all."
+Our collective is building a resilient community around the principles of mutual
+aid.
 
-  -- Oscar Wilde
+All we have is each other, so it's critical that we provide a resilient
+community network that can support, sustain and grow itself in an autonomous,
+tolerant, diverse and inclusive manner.
+
+We will enable this by providing resources, information and tooling for
+collaboration, communication and event organising that's informed by ongoing
+discovery and facilitation of community needs.
+
+  In the practice of mutual aid, which we can retrace to the earliest beginnings
+  of evolution, we thus find the positive and undoubted origin of our ethical
+  conceptions; and we can affirm that in the ethical progress of man, mutual
+  support not mutual struggle—has had the leading part.
+
+  In its wide extension, even at the present time, we also see the best
+  guarantee of a still loftier evolution of our species.
+
+  -- Mutual Aid: A Factor Of Evolution by Pyotr Kropotkin
+
+Being involved with our collective and associated groups should feel like
+living in alignment with our hopes for the world, our passions and enliven us
+in an environment of reciprocity and respect.
