In recognition of our fifth anniversary, which we reached in February 2024, we invite everyone who cares about better health and well-being for our most vulnerable residents, especially young people, to show us by making a *$5 (or more) monthly recurring investment in our work.
Together, we will remove the root causes of poor health outcomes and empower our region’s most valuable resource — our young people — to build a foundation for a better life.
*Recurring donations can be suspended or canceled at any time by emailing [email protected].
Western North Carolina deserves exceptional leaders. We believe that designing and implementing a leadership development program specific to the needs of Western North Carolina is needed now more than ever.
Our Now + Next program is geared toward nonprofits and public service providers. It aims to intentionally engage the next generation of leaders from multiple underrepresented groups.
Graduates of this program will be better positioned to support those in need and to secure resources meant to create meaningful impact.
The program’s success will ultimately be measured by improvements in regional health outcomes through health, education, economic security, and especially organizational capacity building.
