Movement
Together is How
Change Happens
Thrive + Prosper aims to be the most relational and impactful movement Grand Rapids has
ever experienced.
Where it’s normal — not newsworthy — for everyone to thrive and prosper.
We’re a collective of local businesses, entrepreneurs, investors, philanthropists, community organizations, faith organizations and residents with a shared vision.
Mission
To connect and facilitate networks of changemakers on the ground with networks of resources to drive generational impact.
Vision
To stimulate a culture in which it's normal for everyone to thrive and prosper.
