MyHoodConnect is on a mission to help bring all communities that are known in cities and surrounding towns as ‘hoods’ ONLINE in 2019! MyHoodConnect is more than just a business listing website, it’s a united online ‘hood’ community that is built for discovery and empowerment for our youth and future generations.
MHC has been designed to showcase to the world, especially the youth, the talents, developments, and success stories that are birthed in our ‘hood’ communities. The youth in these communities need a positive online media outlet that allows them to see and hear the testimonials of successful business owners, innovators, game-changers, and advocates who might have come from similar walks of life, and as like them, aspire to produce growth in our ‘hoods’.
The Let’s Bring Our Hoods Online 2019 campaign is a united effort to encourage everyone to transform the vision of our ‘hood‘ communities. We want to change the way people view our ‘hoods’, better known as ghettos. There’s a lot of talented and skilled youth and adults who have the capability of transforming our ‘hoods’ into thriving and safe communities for our future generations. The MyHoodConnect team is here to work together with advocates to help remove the invisible limitations that have been placed on our ‘hood’ communities and the people that reside in them. By our ‘hoods’ having an online presence, our communities: (1) can take control of how their image is portrayed in the media, (2) empower others to live out their dreams, and (3) broadcast to millions of individuals across the world what’s good in the hood.
The ‘hood’ has a resilience that is more than intriguing and worth discovering. Instant happiness with family and friends are the top priorities in this community. The obstacles and many barriers that ‘hood’ residents face on a daily basis speak to their resilience to still want to live for tomorrow. The straight line to the American Dream is often times not a ‘hood’ resident’s dream or if it is, it’s extremely difficult for them to see beyond their guard. Better yet, a ‘hood’ resident’s dream cannot be boxed into someone else’s. Freedom to BE and express themselves creatively is the outlet that is needed to help transform our ‘hood’ communities. And as leaders, game-changers, and teachers we can BE that resource to help others launch their dreams right where they are.
MyHoodConnect is a visual tool for our ‘hood’ residents and website guests. MHC guests have the opportunity to find a business that is more than likely operated by someone that has a testimony of resilience to share with you.
“It’s time to no longer look for an opportunity to be given to you, it’s time that we start creating opportunities in our HOODs. I know that you know how to get the freshest and dopest labels, but now it’s time to remove the label infatuation blindfolds. In 2019, together, let’s set our eyes and focus on creating your own brands, labels, and successful businesses.” – MyHoodConnect Founder, JD Scott
