What does a stronger community look like through the eyes of local students?

Today, Beth Fox joined the JA Fair in Muskingum County to introduce students to careers in philanthropy and the impact they can have right here at home.

Students shared ideas for making our community better, from helping neighbors and cleaning up parks to supporting those in need. The response was inspiring, and the board filled up fast!

The next generation of changemakers is already thinking about how to make Muskingum County stronger, kinder, and more connected. 💚
