Mika's name comes from the Old Testament prophet, Micah. Our founding scripture is Micah 6:8
"He has showed you what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with your God."
Mika Community Development Corporation exists to identify and equip leaders in low-income neighborhoods to build communities with VISION.
Communities of VISION demonstrate the following outcomes:
* Vision: neighbors share and agree on a desired future for their community.
* Interdependent Relationships with God and Each Other: neighbors support one another in all facets of life: spiritually, emotionally, socially and economically.
* Servant Leadership: leaders are committed to serve first, listen, trust, collaborate, and empower other neighbors to serve effectively.
* Impact: neighbors identify, design, fund, manage and evaluate sustainable initiatives that transform their community.
* Organization: neighbors have established efficient and effective local systems and structures to reach their shared goals and vision.
* Networks: neighbors collaborate with public and private partners from inside and outside the community to maximize the impact of their initiatives.
