There's so many reasons (read below!) but ultimately, without his achievements, our own family wouldn’t exist. So we've collaborated with black artists and creatives in order to bring this historic home (and passion project) to our community. More reasons: 1. His impact was an inspiration in founding our hosting business "All Belong" 2. MLK himself walked this street and even stayed overnight just a few blocks away! 3. The street used to be known as black Main Street and is named after him. 4. Our son is black and that matters. 5. To highlight black excellence 6. To support black-owned businesses 7. To tell the story that hatred doesn’t win 8. To inspire others to dream BIG 9. To educate, inspire, challenge, and build bridges 10. To give financially to local organizations that fight poverty and racism 11. His message of love, peace, and unity is what we all need to hear right now. 12. To welcome ALL We hope you’ll find the MLK Dream Home a place where you belong!
