Hello HomeAgain friends! A year has gone by since our last Facebook announcement, and we decided it’s high time we post an update. Incredibly, we began building an app that would connect people virtually, about three months before the pandemic started. Over the past year, we have tested out our new program with hundreds of users in 20+ states and 6+ countries. Overall, our online community has resulted in thousands of hours of both one-on-one connection and group gatherings for people aged 8 - 102. Our app is still actively in development. Here is our new blurb and mission statement:
HomeAgain is a grassroots, membership-driven community made up of virtual tour guides and travelers who regularly connect with one another to build friendships and promote positive human connection. Our platform empowers its members to start a healthy habit by expanding their social community, learning new things, and offering their time and companionship to someone else. A series of shared virtual experiences, including travel destinations, museums, and wildlife, serve as icebreakers for conversation. We are a new kind of social platform that puts the focus back where it belongs: on the people.
More to come soon!
