Online: Rural Nonprofit Gathering – Rural Panel Discussion: Challenges, Opportunities & Favorite Resources

Thursday, March 28th, 2024
2:00 pm- 3:00 pm PST
Free
Online via Zoom

Rural nonprofits often face various challenges that limit their total capacity. Farmer’s Markets, Summer Camps, Community Health Centers, and Pet Shelters affect Washington communities. Limited budgets, staff turnover, lack of visibility, or outdated starting tools limit rural nonprofits from empowering the communities they serve by failing to fulfill their mission due to the challenges they face every day.

Join us at our next Rural Nonprofit Gathering, where we will invite three Rural Nonprofit Association of Washington members to a panel discussion in which they will share more about the challenges they have faced in the nonprofit sector and what opportunities have come their way to help them succeed.

We will also have an opportunity for rural nonprofit participants to share their favorite community resources, followed by some networking time.

SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENT

I am currently pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Computer Science at Stanford. Since the beginning of my freshman year I have been involved with clubs such as Stanford’s Space Initiative (SSI) and the Society of Latinx Engineers (SOLE). In SSI I built a rocket and launched it.

Aero Methow Rescue Service

GRANT RECIPIENT

Due to being rural, remote, and geographically isolated, we must be prepared to do more than respond to emergencies. We have become a healthcare partner who fills gaps in service. The grant allowed our board the time and ability to work with a Strategic Planner to modify our plan to address those gaps.

The grant provided funds to hire a Housing Justice and Outreach Coordinator to visit rural and underserved areas. Rosie’s bilingual and bicultural skills and experience have increased equity of service. Rosie is building partnerships with local organizations through events such as the Columbia Valley Community Health’s Back to School Drive, as well as posting yard signs.

Scholarship Recipient

My father was a migrant agricultural worker who eventually started his own cherry and apple orchard. He told me if I wanted to live a better life, I had to get an education. I plan on starting a career with the Chelan PUD with a passion for renewable energy and in turn give back to my parents and community for supporting my dreams.
