Your contribution will help empower Men and Women who are trying to build a better, stronger life. One that they can be proud of because they earned it.

Justice-involved men and women face tremendous obstacles as they work to reenter society after being impacted by the justice system. While these individuals are generally required by the legal system to be employed, pay for legal services, and have a permanent residence as their condition of their freedom. Obtaining these requirements is virtually impossible for most as they face discrimination for both employment and housing. Sidre’s purpose is to serve the Justice-Involved as they work to reenter society, providing hope and encouragement. This is accomplished by providing Business Education, Entrepreneurial Training, Mentorship, and Employment Services.

Sidre’s vision is to provide these services at minimal or no cost, and to do this, we are asking for your assistance. Our goal is to provide every justice-involved person who wants it, from the very beginning, with a foundational business startup education at no charge. We’ve set a goal to raise the money needed to fund the first 100 participants' education. As we launch, Sidre's educational program technology expense is just under $35.00 per student at $33.78. Our goal to raise $3,500.00 through the support of individuals like you!

Help Sidre help the Justice-Involved receive the dignity, respect, and the support they deserve.

What's with the Name?

Sidre, Cidre, or Cider: However you spell it or whatever continent you’re on, Sidre is about creating value where none exists. Historically, orchard harvesters selected only the best fruit for market. The bruised, broken, and otherwise damaged fruit was culled away. Orchard owners discovered a profitable use for the bruised, broken, or otherwise damaged fruit, giving this culled out fruit a chance to be used to create something new, useful, and valuable: they created Sidre. In the same fashion, Sidre seeks to help the bruised, broken, or otherwise damaged of our society find new hope, a purpose for life, and realize they are truly valuable creations!
