Guiding Principles
Community Connections – We convene community members for dialogue, networking and sharing ideas. We can achieve more by listening and working with concerned citizens and organizational partners.
Meaningful Action – We pursue projects that can serve as a catalyst for change with measurable outcomes and benefits. We promote preparedness to mitigate risks from severe weather events and to raise awareness about climate change.
Sustainability – We support programs to preserve our world-class environment for future generations and strengthen community self-reliance by developing and supporting initiatives that champion conservation of natural systems, encourage reduced fossil fuel dependency, cultivate local food systems, and harness clean energy.
Helping Our Neighbors – We undertake programs that support and empower our neighbors, especially youth and those most vulnerable to the effects of climate change.
