Join us tomorrow for this important next session on equitable planning and planting!

"Catalyzing Lasting Impact” isn’t just about delivering results today; it’s about laying the foundation for sustainable, long-term change. I’ve learned that real, lasting impact happens when we empower individuals and communities to take charge of their future. From building socio-economic resilience in vulnerable communities to leading anti-child trafficking initiatives and promoting environmental sustainability, I’ve seen firsthand how strategic partnerships, community engagement, and capacity-building can create a ripple effect of positive change. #Leadership #Sustainability #CommunityDevelopment #SocialImpact #Empowerment #NonprofitLeadership" #One Young World 2024 Learnings!

Stray thoughts that flowed through my ears and then whirled in my head as we discussed weaving more #networks of networks committed to supporting a just, sustainable, democratically/locally-owned and operated regional food system grounded in #trust: 🔆 organizing around #food really does create capacity for other conversations to happen (literally as in breaking bread together but also food truly does connect to everything else!);  🔆 there is a massive gap around information #flows in/and around networks in our region (meaning we need more crucial information moving in care-fully curated ways, and we need more people understanding networks and their roles in them!); 🔆 we have look to create more space, and more diverse space, in "the middle" (for example, between state government and local communities); that will be how #change happens ... 🔆 for example, we might use the existing model in Vermont of stipending temporary work to move massive resources through state systems (connects to the idea of rotational #sharedleadership) ... 🔆 we need to help build up "community soil" so we can get more resources to the roots in a way that does not deluge them; 🔆 to this end, ⬆ we might build on existing #communityorganizing infrastructure to disburse information and funding ... 🔆 ... and The New England Grassroots Fund is a model in our region for “regranting” and peer review processes that others could adopt in local #communities; 🔆 AND we have to help "backbone organizations" of different kinds understand how to build #trust/#relationship and then what to do with them (or THAT you can do things with them! - this would truly be a “game changer"

Endings are not always final; sometimes, they’re simply the starting point for something new and wonderful. With support, we can turn what feels like an end into a fresh start. Every step we take, even through the hardest times, is a step toward a bright future! ✨ #newbeginnings #freshstart #recovery #systemofcare #community #inthistogether #communitysupport #brightfuture

Addressing the ongoing concern of providing clean water sustainably remains a key strategic focus

🌱As a regional social enterprise that is firmly embedded into the fabric of our local community, we put a high value on consulting with our local stakeholders about how best to address the needs of young people in our region, and on forming collaborative partnerships with local organisations to broaden and deepen our impact. In the wake of a recent consultation session we ran with some of our key community stakeholders, Michael Pryke Chair of the Mumbulla Community Foundation wrote that: “Grow the Future’s efforts to create a more resilient and self-sufficient community are commendable and align with broader goals of environmental conservation and economic stability. I have witnessed firsthand the positive changes brought about by Grow the Future’s activities. Their hands-on approach to community involvement and their ability to collaborate with various stakeholders make them a vital asset to the Bega community. Their programs not only address immediate needs but also lay the groundwork for long-term sustainability and resilience. Supporting Grow the Future means investing in a brighter, more sustainable future for Bega.” 🐝While we get allot of buzz from the day to day impact that our programs are making, it’s always nice to hear words of support and appreciation from key community partners, and it fills us with allot of gratitude that we get to work with so many awesome organisations across the Bega Valley #walkingwithcommunity #regionalnsw #socialenterprise #regionalyouth #impactintheregions #communitylead
