One CommunityNew-Paradigm Philanthropy – One Community Weekly Progress Update #101
We see new-paradigm philanthropy as philanthropy that meets the needs of the world while also meeting the needs of the individual. More specifically, combining sustainable food, energy, housing, education, economics, fulfilled living, and earth stewardship practices into open source sustainable and fulfilled living environments. These environments will better meet the needs of the individual while also helping creating a better planet and helping others to live this way too. We call this living and creating for The Highest Good of All:
- Here’s our project overview
- Here’s our world-change methodology
- Here’s how this becomes self-replicating
- Here’s how we are open source and free-sharing all the do-it-yourself designs

In addition to this, Samuel Soroaster (Permaculturalist and sustainable designer from Green New World), created this next evolution for updating 2 of the 4 toilet domes promoting new-paradigm philanthropy in the Earthbag Village. This updated design still incorporates increased water collection and reuse of greywater to flush the toilets. In addition to this though, it now uses space more efficiently while allowing all bathrooms to be ADA compliant.

WHY ONE COMMUNITY IS CREATING THIS
The One Community self-replicating model is capable of creating a sustainable planet incorporating new-paradigm philanthropy within 30 years. We will achieve this by establishing successful teacher/demonstration hubs on every continent. Villages include designs appropriate for each of the five main types of climates. They also include options for even the most challenged economies. These hubs will collaborate with one another, share ideas, resources, and work together as a network to heal the planet. They will also transform the global lifestyle to a more enjoyable, fulfilling, healthy, and sustainable one.
The specifics of how One Community is accomplishing this can be found on the One Community Solution Model to Create Solution-creating Models Page. Research supporting and showing the benefits of a model like this can be found on our Research and Resources Articles Archive.
Even if we don’t achieve our ultimate goal of global transformation, a self-replicating teacher/demonstration model like this will take a relatively short period of time to positively affect millions through new-paradigm philanthropy while inspiring millions more. For One Community residents (the Pioneer Team), the idea of creating and sharing the social and recreational experience with visitors is also fun, exciting, fulfilling, and an additional reason why we are creating this.
WHAT ONE COMMUNITY IS CREATING
One Community is creating a place to grow together and change the world together. We are creating a space that helps each other live in integrity with each other and the planet as we strive to be the greatest versions of ourselves through new-paradigm philanthropy. We do this by harmoniously respecting each other, nature, and the rest of our one shared planet.
Our goal is to demonstrate what we feel is the most sustainable, healthy, and fun environment we can create. A place based on compassion, kindness, and collaboration. This replicable community will serve as an example for what is possible.
Throughout our design process we are open sourcing and free-sharing everything needed for construction and replication. This includes what we call “Highest Good” approaches to food, energy, housing, education, for-profit and non-profit economics design, social architecture, fulfilled living, stewardship practices and more promoting a new-paradigm philanthropy. We are creating these resources for implementation as individual components or complete developments called teacher/demonstration hubs. These hubs will help launch additional hubs as awareness and knowledge grow.
