Brother-in-Law to a former NBA star and Founder & Chief Investment Officer of Avatar Advisors Group, I understand the impact celebrity can have on getting the message out...and as a business owner, Our mission as "Social Entrepreneurs" is to act as change agents in the social sector by behaving in the following ways:

Adopting a mission to create and sustain social value… Our mission of social improvement is critical, and it takes priority over generating profits. We focus not only on the quick fix, but also look for ways to create lasting improvements.

Recognizing and relentlessly pursuing new opportunities to serve the mission…
Where others see problems, entrepreneurs see opportunities! We have a vision of how to achieve our goals, and we are determined to make that vision work.

Engaging in a process of continuous innovation, adaptation, and learning…
We are too small to have the complexities of what larger enterprises face as a result of ironically, their size…Therefore, we are able to swiftly look for innovative ways to ensure that our initiatives create social value and obtain needed resources and funding as long as they are creating value.

Acting boldly without being limited to resources currently in hand…
Social entrepreneurs are skilled at doing more with less and at attracting resources from others. We explore all resource options, from pure philanthropy to the commercial methods of the business sector, but they are not bound by norms and traditions.

Exhibiting accountability to the constituencies served and for the outcomes created...
We are taking incremental steps to ensure that we are creating value. We are relentlessly seeking ways to provide real social improvements to our beneficiaries and their communities, as well as an attractive social and/or financial return to investors.

Avatar Advisors Group, are among the reformers and revolutionaries of our society, today… who unknowingly, can easily become the vanguards of tomorrow that others will follow.
