Empowering Communities Through Technology and Innovation
Leveling the Opportunity of Technology
Equitable adoption of technology is the best route to prosperity and healthy communities. In the 21st century AI and decentralized energy generation are the biggest game changing technologies of our times. Leap Forward Now was created to enable communities with access to these technologies.
Our Mission and Vision
Leap Forward Now is dedicated to leveraging cutting-edge technology to alleviate poverty among underserved communities, especially youth in the Global South and rural US communities. Our mission is to harness the power of the AI revolution, the income opportunities arising from the energy transition and resilience of decentralized energy generation to create vibrant, self-sufficient communities.
Our Key Initiatives

Future South AI
Throughout history, early adoption of new technologies has driven civilization forward. Technology has improved countless aspects of life, and we believe that accelerating technology adoption can help bridge the gap between the Global South and North. In this decade, adopting AI in the Global South is especially critical, as it holds immense potential to foster innovation and drive economic growth.
Liberating our Energy
Energy powers everything, yet elite control over energy systems keeps communities tied to a centralized economy. Advances in decentralized energy offer a path to independence. Small-scale solar, now more affordable and reliable, remains underrecognized. LeapForwardNow is dedicated to raising awareness and expanding decentralized solar adoption globally, empowering communities to harness clean, self-sufficient energy.
Saving Small Family Farms
Small family farms in the U.S. face rising costs and fierce global competition, yet powerful elite interests block them from earning passive income through energy infrastructure like wind, solar, and fossil fuels. LeapForwardNow is fighting local policies that prevent access to these lucrative income opportunities, standing with family farms to secure their future and support essential energy development.

AI for Everyone
Adopting AI worldwide can transform lives by improving education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, especially in the Global South. AI can empower communities with tools for smarter farming, small business growth, and access to information, helping to reduce poverty and bridge economic gaps, fostering inclusive, sustainable development for all.
Decentralized Energy and Freedom
Adopting decentralized energy like solar empowers individuals and communities to break free from corporate control, reducing dependence on elite-driven energy monopolies. Solar enables true freedom, letting people generate their own power, lower costs, and prioritize local resilience over profit-driven systems.
Next Generation of Energy
Adopting new energy technologies like wind, solar, and nuclear reduces energy costs, strengthens national security, and offers passive income for landowners. These technologies empower rural communities to thrive, generating sustainable revenue while reducing dependence on costly, centralized energy sources.
