Funding Usage
The funding of Pollen, LLC, will support three years of research aimed at revitalizing vacant buildings and repurposing facilities in a sustainable method. Our mission is clear: to ignite growth opportunities for small businesses and educational initiatives within local communities and to understand the most sustainable business models. Through meticulous research, we are exploring methods of acquisition and development of existing real estate, envisioning spaces that serve the community's needs that are sustainable and supportive of community growth and development.

Business Plan
Pollen, LLC's growth projection for the next 5 years encompasses an innovative approach. The initial three years will focus on pioneering research aimed at revitalizing economies, fostering creativity, entrepreneurship, and continuous learning in a sustainable manner. Following this intensive research phase, our aim is to create a real estate model characterized by low overheads, affordable rates, and immense potential for creative expansion within communities. By the end of year five, we envision implementing a pioneering real estate blueprint designed to catalyze social progress in low-income areas. This includes the establishment of a vibrant makerspace offering tiered memberships, providing access to specialized education across various disciplines. One exciting possibility is granting access to 3D printing technology, equipping individuals with the knowledge to create affordable, sustainable 3D printed homes. Pollen, LLC presents a compelling case for federal grant support due to its innovative and impactful initiatives poised to benefit communities nationwide. By investing in Pollen, the federal government can catalyze economic revitalization, foster entrepreneurship, and promote sustainable development.
