Today we held our second annual Friendsgiving and it was everything we needed. We know once the holiday season begins, the rest of the year can become a blur of busy activity — especially for nonprofits. This was the perfect opportunity to sit back, reflect, and take time to fellowship with our partners in a casual setting with a great meal. We appreciate everyone that took the time to make it today. 🧡

Our Get the 411 on 211 event was a success for a couple of reasons:

đź’™ We announced the awarding of $300,000 in grant funding from The Rapides Foundation to fund, in part, our United Way 211 system

đź’™ Our community partners came together to learn how to help create a more robust database in the system

This 211 system cannot stand alone. We appreciate the support of the community leaders and partners that continue to support, ensure your organization’s information is updated in our system, and promote this integral program. Thank you to The Rapides Foundation’s President & CEO, Joe Rosier, for recognizing the importance of having this system succeed.
