What is your purpose? There are no wrong answers. The best way to think about the question is to consider the real reason(s) why you are doing something or want to do something. Going forward you should carefully define your motives and reasons for doing something, so that each ensuing action is intentional. For example, our purpose is to connect people and businesses to resources and opportunities. Why? Because the economic development of our communities is dependent upon all of us working together towards a common goal.
