Our Mission
The Love + Purpose Foundation exists to uplift communities by serving families, empowering youth, and promoting literacy through acts of love, intentional outreach, and purpose-driven programs.
We believe that when people feel supported and valued, they are empowered to live with purpose — and when purpose meets opportunity, lives and communities are transformed.
Who We Serve
Love + Purpose is dedicated to serving individuals and families in our communities who need support, opportunity, and encouragement to thrive.
What We Do
Love + Purpose was created to serve and uplift communities by addressing immediate needs while investing in long-term opportunities for growth and empowerment.
Our work focuses on:
Supporting families through outreach and resource programs
Promoting literacy and education
Mentoring and empowering youth
Organizing community service initiatives
Building partnerships that strengthen communities
Why Love + Purpose Was Created
Love + Purpose was born from a desire to serve families and communities in meaningful ways during difficult times. After witnessing families suddenly lose access to essential support, the vision for Love + Purpose began to take shape — a foundation built on compassion, service, literacy, and opportunity.
Founded by Audria “Audi” Jones and Derek Harper, Love + Purpose is rooted in a lifelong commitment to giving back, mentoring youth, strengthening families, and investing in the communities that helped shape them.
