My Mission
First Order's mission is to eliminate profit barriers to basic necessities. We build non-profit businesses that provide essential goods and services at cost, with zero markup.
It starts with profitable software companies where 100% of profits go to humanitarian charities. Then we expand to food banks, at-cost restaurants, and eventually a global network where profit margins never prevent access to what people need.
Everything we build will be open source. My goal is not to make a monopoly but to start a movement that people can replicate worldwide.
