In 2014, the Community Foundation joined with other community partners to launch Reading into Success, a literacy initiative that is aligned with the national Campaign for Grade Level Reading. We are also involved in community conversations about disaster response and resiliency. Does this mark a “new era” for the Community Foundation, or is this an extension of our existing work, philosophy and funding? (Hint: It’s the latter.)

Join us for coffee and conversation, as we put our programmatic work (grants, Nonprofit Network & Community Leadership) into context. We’ll share with you our philosophy, funding and staffing behind the three aspects of programs at the Community Foundation, and we hope you will share your observations and questions.
