Philosophy of the Engage Network

What's Your Tree is part of a nonprofit organization called The Engage Network.

The core organizing principles behind the Engage Network are:

 PURPOSE
Purpose is deeply knowing who you are and sharing your story. Each person has a
chance to share their story and to find their inner purpose.

 CONTEMPLATION
We want everyone to have a sense of inner and outer balance. To do this, our programs
help people to find a practice that will help them to achieve more peace and more love.

 COMMUNITY
We are better together, particularly in small groups who met in person.

 FUN
When we find joy with each other, life seems to work better.

 SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
We take on projects that make a difference in the world. We do this is a sustainable
manner.

 GROW MORE GROUPS
Using the old civil rights organizing philosophy: “Each one reach one, each one teach one, each one pull one into the sun,” we encourage each small group to find a way to reach out and start other groups. Part of the way we do this is to offer more advanced trainings in leadership and network building. To grow circles, we need your ideas!
