Scalable Core Model: L.E.O. (Learn, Earn, Own)
A replicable 3-phase pipeline:
Enrollees gain practical education in clean energy, caregiving, digital
literacy, and AI tools (partnered with trade schools and AI tech vendors).
Through paid apprenticeships and community development roles,participants generate income while supporting AHOPE projects
After meeting graduation benchmarks, enrollees qualify for assistedownership of a casita or modular home.
Goal: Deploy 70 AHOPE micro-communities across Washington State, focusing on high-need
counties.
Cost per Community: Approx. $1.2M – $2.4M
Funding Sources:
• Public grants (HUD, HHS, DOE)
• Private philanthropy and impact investing
• EB-5 visa capital (where applicable)
• Strategic revenue share with eHAUS (for-profit logistics/housing partner)
EB-5 investments must create 10+ full-time U.S. jobs per $800K-$1.05M
investment. AHOPE will align job creation via LEO program and modular home
installations.
• AHOPE’s nonprofit status restricts direct profit activity; eHAUS serves as the
revenue vehicle via service contracts, not equity stakes..
Rather than relying on speculative vendors, AHOPE will source from:
• Proven modular housing firms with HUD-approved or IRC-certified models (e.g.,
IndieDwell, Vantem, or Boxabl if stabilized)
• Local builders to support job creation
Each site will house 20–40 units with shared facilities, solar-powered systems, and ADA
compliance.
While Tesla’s Optimus bot is not commercially viable today, AHOPE will:
• Partner with existing tech ed platforms (e.g., CompTIA, Google Career
Certificates)
• Explore automation through existing AI tools like service bots, telehealth kiosks,
and digital credentialing
• Lay groundwork to integrate Optimus once technology is field-ready
AHOPE will work with local:
• Salvation Army, YMCA, and domestic violence shelters for candidate referrals
• Tribal nations, veteran groups, and senior service agencies
• Schools and job centers for intergenerational community expansion
