Two Foundation
Our Story
Inspired by a mom’s love and a child’s willful journey toward independence, the Two Foundation was established in 2013 as a 501c3 non-profit organization.
This organization was inspired by Derek Hunter, the son of our Founder, Shari. Born with unique abilities, Shari knew from the very beginning that her son was born to change the world—so she and her family committed to helping make that change possible.
Today, Two Foundation provides the structure and funding for Two & Company – which is a collection of people, places, and experiences, including the Café, Shops and Services – that enables people of every ability to find happiness and success in the workplace and beyond.
Our Vision
Life without labels.
Our Mission

We’re better together.
“One person, family, school, business, community, and country at a time, we can change the future for those we love and serve. That is our ultimate goal and dream.”
–Shari Hunter, Founder
