Evergreen Cooperatives

Evergreen Cooperatives are a model of community-owned businesses that aim to create economic growth and jobs in underserved neighborhoods. Owned and managed by workers and community members, these cooperatives operate in sectors like energy, manufacturing, and laundry services. They focus on sustainable practices, fair wages, and local investment, helping to revitalize the community while ensuring profits stay within the neighborhood. This approach fosters economic inclusion, reduces inequality, and builds long-term local resilience by aligning business success with community benefit.
