A vision in action.
WBM will improve the quality of life in communities by implementing a number of events, games, and community improvement projects. We will work with volunteers to convert green strips, lawns, alleys, and easements into low-maintenance native, perennial, sustainable, yielding systems. We will also work to maintain these systems.
We will actively seek the value of wasted resources by putting them to their duties. The events we host will be centered around educating the community about waste, resources, and sustainability, as well as providing bonding and community-building opportunities. These projects and events will provide a sense of place for everyone in these communities, as well as provide people with an outlet to build connections, to learn, to grow, and to express themselves.
We will also help to connect people with other volunteer opportunities in the community so that they may find projects that are meaningful to them in order to help serve their community.

Hope Garden
The Alley Project
Northeast, KCMO
We Become More has been working on a pilot program in collaboration with the Community Improvement District and the Northeast Kansas city chamber of Commerce to transform neglected alleys in the Northeast Kansas City area. Our goal is to transform these alleys, which have previously been used for illegal activities and dumping, into safe and sustainable spaces for the community.
We are collecting and categorizing the materials found in these alleys, creating raised garden beds and composting clothing that is no longer suitable for donation. In addition, we are educating the community about the resources available in these alleys and building relationships with the homeless and addicted individuals who use them.
By working together, we hope to inspire a sense of hope and bring about positive change in our community.
