Our focus is on those that lack access to the basic essentials of life like food and water. By first meeting these life essentials with no expectation of return or long term commitment, we can reach many more people.

This journey also led us to understand the local issue of food insecurity for many Americans. Even though assistance is available to those lacking the resources to obtain food, many families go without. It is our goal is to work with food banks, community kitchens, restaurants and farmers to provide more nutritious and fresher foods .
We feel that by first focusing on an individual's hunger and thirst, you have a greater chance of partnership in working with these individuals to help clean the environment.
With a background in waste, we had a desire to find a cleaner method for treating medical waste generated by the healthcare industry. In this search for a better way, we found that there are communities around the world that live on garbage dumps and are directly affected by this healthcare waste. These "garbage dump" communities are affected by limited safe water access. The waste issue combined with poor sanitation and limited or no access to clean drinking water creates a huge local problem while also contributing to the global issue of disease and waste.
Our experience gives us a unique perspective of waste and inefficiencies. elms 41 co wants to provide a more efficient method to give to non-profit causes while being a champion for its own mission which is to empower individuals, families and communities thru love inspired actions demonstrated to us by Jesus Christ. It is thru these actions that we hope to improve the transparency of giving to these causes which ensures your gifts are used to the fullest potential.
By focusing on education last, we are able to understand the individuals we are wanting help and thus provide the right education that fits the needs of the individual.
By educating individuals on how to grow and prepare their own food, we empower an individual to begin to grow. This education is about life skills that lead to self improvement and that are focused around the individual.
According to World Vision, 2 billion people of the world’s population live without access to clean drinking water. The lack of access to clean drinking water has several impacts on individuals, as well as, on the environment. Those who live without access to clean drinking water are more susceptible to waterborne diseases. Those who live in these communities have less opportunities to break the cycle of poverty which includes food and nutrition poverty. These circumstances can lead to lower educational opportunities which further entrap these communities into a hopeless cycle.
The global community is affected as well. Access to clean drinking water is critical for limiting the spread of diseases with the possibility of preventing the diseases in the first place. Waterborne illnesses have a larger footprint and contribute to spread of these diseases to other communities.
elms 41 co is a non-profit focused on providing access to clean drinking water and/or food to individuals, families and communities in need. Unsafe water and food insecurity, along with poor sanitation and hygiene, leads to the spread of waterborne diseases, causing illness and death, especially among children and the elderly. By providing the essentials to life, we attack multiple issues. Communities that have access to theses essentials of life are less susceptible to waterborne diseases.
Our mission is to work with other non-profit organizations to find communities in need. By working with organizations with current relationships in these communities, we are able to reduce the time and resources needed to achieve our goals. In addition, an ongoing relationship with each community can be continued. Our goal is to bring hope to underserved communities by overcoming numerous challenges, including education and economic opportunities. We feel a synergetic approach will have the greatest impact for the intended recipient.
From a global and local perspective, providing these essentials to such a large number of people is an enormous task that would leave many untouched if we tried to tackle this on our own. However, if we tackle this together, we can act as a spark that ignites a movement that empowers and enriches many around the world.
