Currently, a Startup in early stages of development... (since Sept 2020: first Art. of Incorporation). It was projected many years ago, to become a "Franchise" like faith-based certified "Public Benefit" Business System.
This is a temporary intraweb "about & updates" page, also because each BP Division will have it's own microsite, similar to the 200 micro-websites we already have here, one for each Focus-Group, currently accessible under the NETGROUPS tab-gate.

ABOUT B-PROVIDENCE PBC

B Providence Multi-Business Holding International:

Low overhead, US based multinational-project to be transferred to Rome - Italy, as a limited liability, paperless, fundraising "B" factor franchise for a 24/7 system of benefit corporations. Not-for-profit international Holding, designed to purchase or establish small for-profit businesses into a system of company-schools of skilled labor not only to provide economic resources for this religious Society and its Apostolic Missions through outstanding services and quality products but also to support as much as possible the “Economy of Communion^[1]” Network. Also, as a future company-school pre-designed to be deeply committed with the Catholic Social Teachings (integral ecology, integral human promotion, sustainability, circular economy^[2], etc.). Its goal will be to provide Christian values-based apprenticeship opportunities especially for younger and other first-time job seekers and the inevitable overwhelming avalanche of jobless people in need of retraining due to the AI revolution. Even our future full-time employees should not work more than 25/30 hr./week and study/train A.I. subjects for less than 7 hr./week (regardless if “in addition to” or included within the 25/30 hr.).

This unusual Holding and business divisions administrator (already legally registered and named “B" Providence MB Holding, PBC”, aproved as a Public Benefit Corporation by the State of Delaware, including it's first strategic Division: https://Telecom.BProvidence.com), will then be establish, little-by-little, in each possible hosting country as a simple local B/P branch under local laws, just adding its name as a suffix like, for instance, BProvidence USA, BProvidence Brazil, BProvidence Spain, etc.

As time goes by, God Willing, In some nations this “national-matrix” wholly owned subsidiary (or as far as permitted by local laws), will be deeply bonded by our Mission Statement ("The 'ambition' to do Good and keep doing Good for others should have no limits!"); and should be keenly able to quickly generate future local business as Corporate Divisions like “B-Providence USA Dry Food Division*” or B-Providence USA General Contractors Division, ...Water & Sewerage Division, Legal Services Division*, IT Division*, Alternative Energy Division, ... Marketing Division*, Telecommunication’s Division*, Artificial Inteligency [AI] Division*, WebHosting Division*, and so forth. (* = already in operation).

Each small business, as a semi-independent "B-P" Division, whether fully owned or in partnership, should be almost instantly ready for paperless and, if possible, even “office-less” operations, from our own digital Credit Union^[3] ; plus our powerful ERP (integrated online enterprise software platform, which includes CRM, accounting, billing, inventory, sales, project managment, SEO+PPC marketing, etc., plus IT/AI partnerships. The overall potential for shareable savings could go to the hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. Indeed, having our own ERP, a private but global Telecom, an HBAR-based credit-union, our own Marketing Division w/ centralized SEO+PPC expertise, will then allow for 'copy & paste' duplicate solutions, minor customizations for invoices and forms, etc.; not to mention the avoided cost to acquire and maintain an AI-ready ERP mission-critical technology, indispensable for most business survival in the near future.

We also hope to enable ad-hoc parish-level or even diocesan level (inter-parishes) temporary micro-businesses aiming to provide employment opportunities for individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities, at least for training purposes, working with the community for their acceptance into other permanent jobs, if possible.

Our specially created “B” factor (Blessed: beneficial, bountiful, better/best, benevolent, bold), whether visible (B. Division) or not for customers, the marketplace, etc., is an strategy of marketing, management, identity and even the starting point of conversations to help us evangelize as we work:  The “b” status, in small-case, means the “minimum"  level of “validation” for each Division or Department: i.e. drug-free employees/volunteers, debt-free, consistent quality, etc. The capital “B” (Benefit) is the very next level. “Bl.” (The orthographic abbreviation of the word “Blessed”) is the final top level of abbreviations, which will not form part of the public name, because likely no longer a Division, but a new  publicly certify Benefit Corporation, with other privileges, after 9 years with no accidents, no major incidents, no serious complaints, etc. Nonetheless, that could be quickly dropped back from top to bottom and, if not sufficient for “b”, swiftly intervened in or closed, according to our private "franchise-like" “B” factor tough Internal Rules. Absolutely no Division or Subsidiary will remain in business, without a full compliance with at least the small "b" level of internal integrity, profitability and sustainability.

Since 1976, our parent institution, the Pope Paul VI Foundation, played a very discreet but active part as one of the few pioneers of the [now worldwide] Corporate Social Responsibility Movement, currently called the "B" Company movement. A Catholic Social Doctrine’s seminal Initiative, it started during the 1950s by UNIAPAC [from Belgium], Blessed Enrique Shaw [from Argentine], entrepreneur now under canonical path for Sainthood^[4]), ADCE [from Brazil], and some other Catholic Institutions inspired by the Rerum Novarum. Also The Pope Paul VI Foundation, with our own "Social Profit (Purpose) Christian Network 1976 (The "Social Balance" requirement proposal, ADCE+Uniapac, etc.) that predated the Reverend "Sullivan Principles" (USA-1977); predate the "Economy of Communion" Project, born in Brazil (1991); and also predate the John Elkington's "Tripple Bottom Line"  (1998) [equivalent to our Social-Bal.]; The bank Unibanco's ESG mandate (2000) also from Brazil, etc. In other words, the Pope Paul VI Foundation brought an early strategic contribution which is enduring and growing for almost half-century.

Nowadays, it is internationally manifested by local laws, regulated initiatives and concepts (The "B" Economy, the Circular Economy, the Sustainable Economy, etc.) such as Flexible Purpose Corporations; public B (Benefit) Corporations; Low-profit limited liability companies; Community interest companies; Impact Investing; Public-benefit corporations; Socially responsible investing; Stakeholder theories; Social Purpose Corporation, Fair Trade partnerships, Social Capital, and even as Workplace Spirituality. In other words, therefore, as a matter of fact, the whole ESG's market, metrics and reportings, now fastly becoming a worldwide business imperative within a multi-trillion dollar global market (currently over US$30 trillion in A.U.M.), came from the Catholic Church (temporarily helped by some US Christian Ministers from the Anti-Apartheid Mov.), led by Brazil (still the world #1 ESG Movement), and now already spreaded globally, but especially troughout Latin American, mostly coordinated by the "Latin American Quality Institute", headquarters in Panama for geo-strategic reason.

Ultimately, despite some despicable left+woke-misuses, even criminal manipulations to promoting abortion, DEI agendas, etc., the worldwide ESG compliance Movement and it's many co-related certifications such as ISO 9000, already represents a major and priceless achievement for the future of Human Civilization. And likewise most previous historical milestones originated and granted to humanity by the Church founded by Jesus Christ, they are "taken for granted," dismissed, distorted, root-denied or even hijacked, (such as the RedCross, etc.), during the past 2000 years.

Concluding, in our particularly "proud" Case, our initials  "B"&"P" not only means "Beneficial" & "Professional" (Corporation). Above all, it means B Providential. It represents a public but personal invitation to "B.P.": To B (become) a new instrument of the Divine Providence, hopefully for the rest of our lives, if accepted. It also means "B" Persistent, B Prayerful, B Provident, Protector, Preventive, Prudent, Proactive, etc. As Mother Teresa taught: “Always help whoever you can, whenever you can, however you can, even if it's with something small, but always try to help." So, at least let's try to B Present, Perspicacious & Prompt to every new opportunity of B (becoming) a Prayerful instrument of God's mysterious Providence in this desperately needed world. A world more than ever grasping for hope, true Hope which only God can grant, especially if we Proactively help Him to no only do Good, but also Prevent evil as much as possible. After all, “B Perfect, as your Heavenly Father is Perfect” (Matt 5:48), constitute an imperative that Christ Himself ordered to those who follow Him, and we never had nor will ever have greater honor and priority other than striving to Persevere in following Him daily and forever!

Several BProvidence's Divisions are already fully operational, such as The Legal Services Division, IT Services Division, Marketing Division, Web-Hosting Division, etc. Others, such as the eCommerce Division, Accounting Services Division, Pilgrimage Travel Division, Rosary Assembly, Online School of Technology, the Dry-Fruit Food Division, or the A.I. Labs Division are in early stage of development as Projects for future divisions. (i.e.: the A.I. potential Division, in less than two years, already created a "miracle" Q&A power-app such as the TruthMatters.app acomplished in partnership with our IT Division, and built on top of our ERP proprietary software, now runnign on PostgreSQL/Supabase/Vercel/Cloudflare at lightning speeds. As another example, at the dry-food "division," only dry bananas and dry banana-based products are available for experimental fund-raising sales, help wanted, BTW: BanaNow.net ).

Regarding the 24/7 Telecommunications Division, which is a major technology challenge, it is already fully operational (including hundreds of DIDs phone numbers and extensions for intenal use (employees, volunteers, religious community members, partners, external workers from several coutries, etc.). However, for public or external use or major projects, such as the EWTNet.org , the BProvidence Telecommunications Division is still operating in Beta mode likely until the end of 2025, currently under heavy development. Mostly a US-based volunteer-driven Public Benefit Co. working 24/7 from several countries, in addition to the USA, such as Brazil, Canada, Pakistan, The Philippines, Argentiva, Nigeria, India, Puerto Rico, Indonesia, Colombia, El Salvador, Spain, etc.

The BProvidence platform of digital assets are already priceless, since we are integrating and developing several strategic technologies, not to mention the compreensive online presence, now worth hundreds of thosands of dollars, secured by gradual ownership of all BProv strategic domains such as BProvidence.com, BProvidence.org, BProvidence.info, plus our premium portfolio of BProvidence short version of domains: BProv.us, BProv.io, BProv.dev, BProv.ai, BProv.blog, BProv.co, BProv.shop,  BProv.art, BProv.org, BProv.net, BProv.tel, BProv.team, etc. Nowadays, it is expremely expensive -if not imposssible- to aquire a such wide TLD spectrum for any meaninful brand, capable to represent itself with only five or less digits' domain name, but we did it, relentless, over the past four years, but now complete, thanks to God's help.

Our financials and budgets are open, if requested. We accept but never asked for donations, only for discounts, pro-bono workers and volunteers. Until breaking even, we will need help to complete our quarterly budgets, hopefully via financial partnership in exchange for professional services or products from any "BProv" Division, therefore consistent with our powerful educational and humanitarian Profit-for-Purpose Mission, governed by our parent institution's Mission Statment: "The 'ambition' to do Good and keep doing Good for others, should have no limits!"  

Let's support each other to become a force for Good also at business levels, defending Christian values and widening human solidariety as much as possible, helping to reverse the current devastating trend of insanity, criminal impunity, wokeness and censorship. Paraprasing the venerable Dorothy Day, founder of the Catholic Work Moviment:  A Good Society is a Society where it is easier to do Good and, (we must add) absolutely NOT easy to do evil with impunity.

A MAJOR & CRITICAL TECHNOLOGY MILESTONE, FOUR YEARS IN THE MAKING, COMPLETED ON DECEMBER  2024

Our legacy and priceless E.R.P. Backend (GENISYS), the BProvidence’s parent institution (Paul VI Foundation) General Relational Database layer-one system, used for decades since 1979, was completely upgraded under the same Model and migrated into a mission-critical, on-prem Supabase PostgreSQL technology. Therefore, our GENISYS 2.0 are now able and ready to integrate any AI API, any Frontend real-time online App, and fully support advanced, private and secure information data for hundreds of Projects, dozens of Divisions and several seminal Apostolates  which are now mostly managed by the Sts. Anne & Joachim Catholic Society, the BProvidence Public Benefit Corporation, the JoAnLabs.org, and The Evangelization World Telecomunication Network (EWTNet.org).

Here, below, end of this page, is the staff that directly worked or indirectly supported, in different times, locations and capacities, credited to have accomplished such a crucial and highly challenging I.T. Project. They came to work or worked remotely from every continent, except Oceania: South, Central and North America, Asia, Africa, and Europe. They can be contacted via email or respective phone extension, by dialing our 24/7 toll-free number 1-800-247-3986 +5-digit ext. #. 

Mostly worked as volunteers, pro-bono professionals, free-lancers, partners or benefactors. Besides small stipends and/or reimbursements for some, none received real financial profit for their services or donations. And no benefactor will ever receive interest for their money lent. Since day one (2020), although a very small fraction, we had no choice but to borrow interest-free complementary funds, because our startup phase will end only whenever we break-even, linkely during 2027/28. 

During this next Q1/Q2 2026 budget, unfortunatly, some project will have to slow down or be paused until we raise the additional funds to support growing operational costs. Higher cost -besides our need for a new office-  is mostly comprised by SaaS Providers that can not be paused or canceled without tragic consequenses. Our whole multi-project Mission cannot survive without almost one hundred monthly subscriptions from SaaS, IaaS, PaaS, AI Platforms and other Providers, mostly from Cloud partnerships, which gradually became inevitably expense, despite careful negotiations and open-source prioritizations.
