About Green Society
Our Mission
Organization Structures
The Green Society is composed of two not-for profits, an association and corporation. Since 2004 we have been conducting research and development in the ever expanding green movement, during this time we’ve been planting seeds of our vision through a grassroots marketing campaign. The Green Society has established a trinity of strategic organizations that will allow us to function as an effective NGO (non-government organization)

The total amount of grants available exceeds $400 billion dollars.

Collective Stewardship of Assets

Green Society Team
Early Life: I was primarily raised in Orange County California and am the oldest of 13 children. I was extensively programmed in football training, SAD (Standard American Diet) living and countless school programs training me to become a worker/consumer.
Education: I graduated from Laguna Hills High School in 2001. I receive a certification in dome construction from the Monolithic Dome Institute. I became a world minister in the Rocky Mt. Mystery School. I have been acknowledged and received training in the arts of living-food chefing from Sol Essential Living. Recently I have been acknowledged in permaculture based living from the Soul Movement Project.
Business: In 2000 until now I have been involved in several network marketing and direct sales businesses opportunities and have been receiving passive residual income from personal and group sales. I decided to get involved in real estate loan sales in 2003 and learned that business for approximately 8 months. Website development, graphic design and marketing became an extensively progressive skill that I have been using for monthly income and internal development for Green Society.
Nutrition/Diet: Weighing in at 185 (lbs) I started diligently researching raw-food nutrition, after loading up on data from a few sources I became a raw/vegan and with-in 3 months I lost 40 (lbs). Over the next 5 years I would ride the wave between vegetarian - vegan – fruitarian. Much of that journey consisted being a strong conduit for raw-food standards and chefing.
Green Living: During my travels to the Bay Area I witnessed the “United Nations World Environment Day”. This presented me with a much larger holistic vision for our culture. I experienced a taste of the evolution of our society through the emerging green trend; this is what birthed the “Green Society”. One great solution that presented itself was a total greening of one’s lifestyle. For the next 3 years, myself and several others traveled to many California based events and performed a grass roots campaign to network and spread the vision of the Green Society as a internal and external permaculture process.
