What is Wilmington Evolution?

A concept and movement aimed at connecting Wilmington community members by creating a network of individuals who want to positively impact their local community through neighborhood beautification, increasing access to healthy food, and providing opportunities for workforce development.

Wilmington Evolution is an extension of Conscious Connections, Inc. and our mission. We welcome the collaboration of other like-minded individuals and organizations that are ready to invest in the continued transformation of our city by demonstrating and modeling community engagement practices that are more purposeful, equitable, and transparent. We believe that we are stronger when we work together and showing LOVE for our city will help EVOLVE it into a safer place with more opportunity for both personal and economic growth.
