Mission: Spring Mountain Benefit Corp. is a nonprofit corporation organized and operated exclusively for charitable purposes.

Our philosophy includes self-help, self-development, and infusion into the economy of the community. Activities include micro-investments, business services, and community resident direct assistance.

Results: We have provided funding for a local chicken coop, pig pen, and horseback riding services. We have made improvements to the roads. We have enabled local businesses to make money from tourists who stay at the Villa.

In some instances, when unforseen events have occured, we have provided funds to help with home repairs, electricity costs, and adult medical expenses.
