Implementation of all grant recommendations
Workshops to increase organizational effectiveness and build capacity

In addition, your fee supports our greater community impact work in:

Tackling pressing community needs or important civic issues through convening community leaders around targeted initiatives (e.g., reducing homelessness, strengthening our arts/culture)
Attracting funds from larger private foundations and other outside sources
