What is a Community?

ShareFest believes that communities are groups of people (a town, for instance) held together by a common identity, interest, or purpose. This shared interest or intent offers a forum for members of the community to build relationships and affiliations out of which they can learn from one another and make an impact on the society or culture around them. Coming from two latin words meaning "with gifts," the term community suggest a general sense of altruism, reciprocity, and benefit that comes from working together.
