Earlier this month, we welcomed partners, volunteers, donors, and community members to our town hall event to share the details of our exciting Strategic Plan. Attendees broke out into small groups, discussed the plan’s strategies, and generated feedback to help shape the implementation of our plan.
Our School-Based Resource Centers are an important part of our work partnering with local organizations to better meet the needs of our community. Learn more about the Community Connectors who staff our satellite Family Resource Centers and the work they do.
Our Strategic Plan for 2024-26 will guide our organization as we embark on the Nourishing Communities Capital Campaign. Read our full plan including our renewed mission, bold vision, and organizational values.
Marcia Wright-Soika,
Executive Director of FamilyWorks
During the summer of 2020, I joined FamilyWorks at a time of tremendous change. We were transitioning from a founding executive director to only the second one we’ve ever had. We were just at the end of a strategic plan when the world around us changed overnight with a global pandemic, and we saw the sharpest increase we have ever experienced of families in need of our services, especially basic needs.
FamilyWorks needs our closest donor community alongside us from the beginning as we embark on this campaign together. Leadership gifts are critical to funding early work, inspiring gifts from others, and building momentum for fundraising.
An unrestricted gift to the Nourishing Communities campaign funds every element of the vision and empowers the leadership to prioritize your funds to the highest and best use.
Because these major facilities and program investments will take 2-3 years to complete, we invite you to consider the full amount you can commit to giving over this time period, which allows you flexibility while giving us confidence in our plan.
In addition to cash, it is often a good financial strategy to give gifts of appreciated stock, direct an IRA charitable distribution, or leverage a donor advised fund or corporate match. Our professional staff is able to explore these options with you to maximize your impact.
With early support from public funds and lead donors, we have already commenced construction and building. Right now, funds are critically needed to ensure our vision is completed.
If you are our neighbor and supporter, share in our vision for this community and invest in establishing these facilities and programs that will transform lives for decades to come.
Support the Nourishing Communities Campaign today by making a gift. Thanks for being our supporter today!

And, if you want to give stock, or provide a corporate match, you can work directly with one of our staff. So, call us or email us to schedule a time to drop off a donation in person – we’d love to get to know you!
