Building Systems for Sustainable Success
The GEORGE Client Fund logo, designed by Puerto Rican muralist Jose Scott, showcases community connections and creative ideas. Scott splits his time between Oklahoma City and New York City, and his art represents our mission of moving people FORWARD.
The GEORGE Client Fund represents more than just financial assistance – it's an investment in creating sustainable systems that ensure long-term success for mission-driven businesses. Through this innovative funding approach, we're building a foundation supporting immediate needs and future growth.
Bradley Setter said, "Throughout my journey working with mission-driven organizations across America, I've witnessed how a strong foundation can transform a business's trajectory. While traditional grant systems often create barriers for marginalized communities, we take a different approach. This one-time community investment will help us build the robust systems and infrastructure needed to serve our communities for years to come. The Client Fund isn't just about providing marketing services – it's about creating a framework where businesses can thrive, and communities can grow together, powered by sustainable systems that will continue delivering value long after this initial foundation is built."
Systems That Drive Success
Our strategic marketing infrastructure delivers custom marketing automation setups, brand development frameworks, content creation systems, and robust analytics tracking mechanisms. Through knowledge transfer and empowerment, we provide comprehensive documentation of processes, training materials, resource libraries, and growth roadmaps tailored to each business's needs.
Sustaining Mission-Driven Work
Your contribution to the Client Fund does double duty. While directly supporting local businesses, it also enables GEORGE to continue its mission-driven work, including our publication "FORWARD | A Mission-Driven Journal." This journal serves as a living testament to the transformative power of strategic marketing and community support.
Through FORWARD, readers journey alongside businesses supported by the Client Fund, witnessing real-time transformation stories and learning about innovative marketing approaches. It's a platform where mission-driven organizations connect, and contributors see their impact on community growth in action.
The Ripple Effect
When you support the Client Fund, you're contributing to sustainable business practices that can be replicated, community wealth building through proven systems, knowledge sharing across business networks, and long-term economic empowerment. Each dollar invested creates waves of positive change throughout our communities.
Success Stories in Action
Each story featured in FORWARD showcases how our community works together to support lasting change. From Maylon's vintage store to ReCity's community initiatives, these narratives demonstrate the power of well-structured marketing support combined with community investment.
The Investment Cycle
The process begins when community members contribute to the Fund. These contributions enable businesses to receive strategic marketing support. Their success stories are documented in FORWARD, inspiring more businesses to participate and ultimately strengthening the community. This continuous cycle of support, success, and inspiration drives sustainable growth.
Building for Tomorrow
As GEORGE approaches its March 2025 launch, the Client Fund represents our commitment to creating lasting change. By investing in systems rather than just services, we ensure that each contribution has a multiplier effect, helping more businesses succeed while strengthening our ability to serve the community.
Your Role in the Movement
When you support the Client Fund, you're not just donating – you're becoming part of a movement redefining how businesses grow and communities thrive. Your contribution helps build the infrastructure needed for sustainable success while enabling GEORGE to continue documenting and sharing these transformative stories through FORWARD.
A Clear Path Forward
Our goal is focused and intentional: to raise $10,000 to cement our foundation. Once we reach this milestone, the Fund will close, having served its purpose of establishing the essential systems and infrastructure needed for sustainable impact. This isn't about creating perpetual dependency – it's about building a solid foundation that will enable GEORGE to continue its mission-driven work independently, serving our communities effectively for years to come. After the initial services and systems are established, we'll transition fully into our operational model, carrying forward the momentum built through this community support to continue transforming businesses and empowering mission-driven organizations.
