​

Part of the Mission of UFD is to build a trillion dollar people's movement of a million or more of Us.  To do so, We are going all out to make sure each of Us is financially secured; that none of Us or Our families want for anything.  This requires that We each work to become an asset to UFD by pushing and challenging Ourselves and each other to do better, be better, and know better.
