Mentorship Programs
Common Ground Ensemble seeks long-term solutions to create a more diversified and resilient local economy.
Ensemble members volunteer to support the CG Foundation’s Incubator Program (launched 2020), a workforce development and business training program for food and beverage lifestyle businesses.
Fundraising Support
Through Common Ground Ensemble’s facilitation several organizations and companies received funding and donations for their projects and businesses.
In order to be able to support our members and changemakers we will raise an Ensemble Impact Investment Fund in the near future.
Ensemble Artist Award
The Common Ground Ensemble Artist Award aims to support artists with exceptional talent and remarkable potential. The winner, nominated by the Common Ground Ensemble community and selected by a jurist of artists and curators, will be invited to a month-long residency at the stunning Common Ground campus on Kauaʻi and receive the broader support of the Ensemble community.
Education
We develop programs for adults and children to learn about the impact of food and food systems on the health and well being of humans and planet.
Exchange programs with academic institutions include the Earth University in Costa Rica.
Local Initiatives
Stay tuned for the announcement of an initiative we are very excited about!
