Community Voices: Issues and Impact

Community Voices: Issues and Impact are forums sponsored by The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven. Started as donor forums, their goal now is to promote dialogue between all sectors of the community. In addition, we hope to catalyze efforts by the community to make a difference and to mobilize philanthropy.

Now We're Talking Positive...

We're pleased to present our newest community philanthropy forum. It's still about youth, but rather than focus on their problems, or more politely their challenges, we're now going to celebrate their successes. We're lining up a bunch of youth groups to show off their youth who are making a difference. Here's the official invitation language and info:

Celebrate What You’ve Done

Join the Youth You’ve Helped

Talk to Them, and Watch Them Show Their Stuff

How Do We Help Them Continue to Achieve?

How Do We Help More Youth Do the Same?

Tuesday, August 14, 2007

The thirteenth in a series of donor-community conversations.

As always, let us know what you think. I'm going to post soon the list of youth agencies or programs who have agreed to let their youth strut their stuff. Feel free to comment in the meantime.
