Work for Impact

Our Impact Areas

We focus our efforts on three key areas of impact and investment: improving healthy community, advancing youth opportunity, and building community resiliency.

Healthy Community

Improving health and well-being for all families by strengthening their stability and connection to each other

We improve health and well-being for local children and families by connecting people to the resources they need to lead safe, healthy lives. From access to basic needs like food and health care to building greater financial stability, we work across sectors to ensure that everyone in Lane County can flourish.

Youth Opportunity

Helping young people reach their full potential through every stage of their development and education

We create pathways to success for young people to thrive. By investing in childcare, early learning and literacy, parenting education, and family engagement, we ensure that every child in Lane County has the opportunity to reach their full potential.

 

Community Resiliency

Addressing urgent needs today for a better tomorrow

We help Lane County communities prepare for, prevent, and respond to big challenges, from emergency response to disaster relief. In times of crisis, we bring local leaders, neighbors, and resources together to raise funds and take action. And because we know that resilient communities recover from emergencies more quickly and effectively, we help build stronger local connections – before, during, and after disaster – to sustain momentum through long-term recovery.​
