Our Story
Shaping Summit Together is a 501c(3) organization. Our mission is to ensure that Summit reaches its full potential as a mature, diverse, suburban community and to facilitate efforts so that Summit continues to be a community that works together to shape its future. We operate as an “alliance” with community stakeholders; and we collaborate to organize community-wide programs pertaining to character, values and service and prevention of substance abuse.

Our current organization emanated from a committee of the Mayor’s Forum on Diversity entitled “Valuing Diversity”. In 1995 it became known as “Summit 2005” with an aspirational timeline to reach the fulfillment of its mission with a 10-year strategic plan. Then, in 2005, it was determined that this organization’s “reason for being” was still relevant and important. The name was changed to “Shaping Summit Together” to reflect the time-honored importance of being a collaborative community working together to shape its future.
