What we do ...

We're working for prosperity, opportunity, and a rising standard of living!
We believe that economic growth is the best means to improve the
"QUALITY OF LIFE".

The Positive Growth Alliance is a Delaware, nonpartisan, nonprofit, tax-exempt corporation.  We work with government officials and the public to promote the concept that consumers should control their access to goods, services, and housing through the principals of free enterprise so as to control their own destiny and enhance their standard of living.  We strive to accomplish this goal through protection of property rights and defending private enterprise from excessive government intrusion.

Our motto is "Enhancing the quality of life through economic growth." Membership is open to the general public. Members come from a broad base of the citizenry. Many are landowners, or are engaged in some facet of the housing industry such as home building, real estate, site contracting, various support industries, and employees of same. There is also a significant percentage of membership primarily interested, on a principled basis, in responsible, limited government and increased economic opportunity for all through the private sector.

The Positive Growth Alliance is interested in your opinion and suggestions
about the "Quality of Life" here in Sussex County. Send your comments to pgalliance@delaware.net.  For information on becoming a member click on the "Contact Us" button in the upper left margin.
