WeCommune (as in "we are communing...") is a technology platform that provides aggregated micro-communities the tools they need to share resources and build deeper, smarter forms of community. The company was founded on the principles E.F. Schumacher laid out in his seminal book ‘Small is Beautiful: Economics as if People Mattered‘ (1973).
WeCommune gives users a fast, flexible and fun way to come together with people they're close to, share resources, and build the kind of tight-knit community that can not just survive, but thrive. This is social networking v2.0, where sharing actually means sharing, and the collective power of groups is harnessed to get things done in the real world. It's social networking with soul. And we think it's got the potential to become a huge "coming together" grass-roots movement, the kind we haven't seen since the '60s.
WeCommune Inc. is a socially-responsible for-profit company founded by 42-year-old Harvard-trained entrepreneur/architect Stephanie Smith in March 2009. It began as an Ecoshack social design project called Wanna Start a Commune? and was featured on All Things Considered (NPR) in early 2009.
