This summer, we celebrated the one-year mark of our Impact Cohort!
This three-year collaborative, fueled by a $6.6 million investment from United Way, is made up of 19 all-star local nonprofits. By sharing resources, learnings, and expertise, this group uses each other's distinctive strengths to amplify our shared work: building an ecosystem of support in our community, and especially for our local ALICE families.
In just one year, collaboration has already led to exciting new initiatives. The YMCA and Crabtree Farms are helping bring fresh food to families throughout the summer. The Chattanooga Area Food Bank and Signal Centers are creating workforce pathways, while Chattanooga 2.0 and Chattanooga Neighborhood Enterprise are strengthening family engagement in Alton Park. And this just skims the surface.
