Enpak: Building digital communities
The Map to Your Community
Project Description
🌍 Our Mission
At Enpak, we believe every community deserves access to trusted local information, visibility for small businesses, and real opportunities to connect. We’re building a digital ecosystem that brings together the pieces that make communities thrive — verified local news, events, businesses, and resources — all in one place. Our mission is simple: to make staying informed and connected as easy as opening an app.
💡 Why We Exist
In neighborhoods across the country, people are losing access to the information that shapes their daily lives. Local stories go untold, small businesses struggle to reach nearby customers, and residents miss out on essential resources that could improve their circumstances. It’s not that the information isn’t out there — it’s just scattered, inconsistent, and often inaccessible. Enpak is changing that.
📱 What We’re Building
Enpak Social is a one-stop community app designed to simplify how people access what’s happening around them.
Through our interactive map and content platform, users can:
- Discover local businesses and promotions
- Stay informed with verified stories from trusted local news sources
- Find and attend events in their neighborhood
- Access resources and opportunities tailored to their community
📈 Our Traction So Far
Since launching in 2023, Enpak has already made meaningful strides:
- 25,000+ engaged users across our social channels
- 1,000+ app downloads and growing
- 100+ partnerships with local news outlets and community organizations
- Active business onboarding across Queens, Long Island, and Maryland
The demand is clear — people want a central hub for reliable, community-focused information. Enpak is becoming that hub.
💰 How We’ll Use the Funding
Your support will help us scale Enpak’s impact and reach more communities. Each dollar brings us closer to our vision of connected, informed, and thriving communities, one block at a time. We’ll use the funds to:
- Enhance the app experience and expand technical infrastructure
- Grow partnerships with local publishers, small businesses, and civic groups
- Invest in community engagement through local events and outreach
- Support small business onboarding and training for our business portal
👩🏾💼 Meet the Founder
Coralie Saint-Louis is a journalist turned techpreneur with more than a decade of experience in media, audience strategy, and community engagement. Her work has reached millions, and she saw firsthand the growing disconnect between people and local information.
Enpak was born out of that mission: to restore trust, accessibility, and community connection through technology.

When neighbors are connected, everyone wins.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we can reimagine what community looks like in the digital age.
