25 Years of Trusted Charitable Giving The Community Foundation of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County celebrates its 25th anniversary this October 2023. What a 25 years it’s been! The Community Foundation has made grants totaling $74,991,632 since our inception in 1998. Correction You, the community, did that. Not us. During our time acting as your facilitator of giving, we have come to understand that each grant tells a story. They tell a story of a person or group of people who have a vision of how our area can be better today, tomorrow, and forever. We are thankful to be in the position where we can help those people turn those visions into reality. We are excited to see what the future holds for Harrisonburg and Rockingham, Virginia.

At The Community Foundation of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County, we make it easy to give back to the community we love. We do this in part by informing you of our community’s greatest needs. As you think about the end of 2023, we hope you consider the programs and projects included in this publication for your charitable giving. We encourage you to read each one as each page details a productive way to improve our community. This publication is meant to inform the greater community and channel your aspirational giving towards programs and services that most need your partnership. We also encourage you to think about The Community Foundation as you plan your yearend gifts and gifts from your IRA. Consider a gift to TCFHR to make our community better. Thank you for supporting local causes and thank Revlan Hill you for giving back.

MISSIONŋ As a nonprofit affiliate of Friendship Industries since 2012, we are on the front lines of fighting poverty. We provide jobs to our neighbors with barriers to employment, working to overcome challenges many of us may never face. We strive to connect employees to local community resources and create opportunities to better their personal situation.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Able Solutions was founded in 2012 as an affiliate of Friendship Industries. Our mission is to provide employment and training opportunities for individuals with one or more barriers to employment. These barriers could be a lack of English-speaking or reading skills, work attendance issues, recovery from drug and alcohol addiction or reentry after incarceration.

We serve economically disadvantaged citizens of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County working hard to improve their lives, providing employment and training for those who need a “hand-up.”

Many of our employees are in the A.L.I.C.E. population (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed), one emergency away from poverty.

Building bridges to a brighter future is our driving purpose.

ARTS & CULTURE A²Á¹ C Ç cp f Ále Va eä MISSIONŋ The mission of Arts Council of the Valley (ACV) is to cultivate the arts, create experiences, and connect communities in the City of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County. The organization works toward its mission through five program areas: Advancing the Arts Grants, First Fridays of the Valley, Public Art, Smith House Galleries, and Court Square Theater.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Established in 2000, ACV has grown into a multifaceted community organization fostering innovative partnerships among area businesses, civic groups, schools, and artists. However, its 2014 website is clunky and unsearchable, leading Court Square Theater to develop a stand-alone site last year that allows visitors to quickly find events and purchase tickets. Thanks to the generosity of Estland (providing $20,000 of inkind services), ACV is now involved in developing a brand new site, designed to be mobile-friendly, ADA compatible, and easy to search. Working to reverse a 65% decline in year-to-date visits from 2022, the site will feature a vibrant look in keeping with the creativity and community connections ACV works to enhance.

YOUTH MISSIONŋ Create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Big Brothers Big Sisters of HarrisonburgRockingham County has been providing highquality, one-to-one mentoring services to local youth facing challenges for 46 years. The agency is consistently recognized by Big Brothers Big Sisters of America for program quality, making matches that are stronger and last longer than most across the country. This means more positive impacts for local youth. The School Based Mentoring Program has been active for more than 30 years. Prior to 2020, we partnered with every elementary school to serve hundreds of area youth. Restarted in 2022, the program now operates at Bluestone and Pleasant Valley Elementary Schools. Financial support would help to grow these programs and expand to more schools.

MISSIONŋ Blue Ridge CASA for Children is a nonprofit organization advocating for children who have experienced abuse and/or neglect through recruitment, training, and supervision of community volunteers.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Blue Ridge CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) recruits, trains, screens, supports, and retains community members who volunteer as advocates for children whose safety, health, educational, and economic needs are unmet to such an extent that they experience abuse or neglect. CASAs are the only advocates written into the Code of Virginia and are allowed to receive confidential case information to better serve the children. CASA volunteers play a vital role in advocating for the well-being of abused and neglected children in court proceedings.

Retaining volunteers is crucial for ensuring continuity and stability. We will focus our efforts on recruiting and onboarding, continuing education, evaluation, and retention of volunteers.

MISSIONŋ Our mission is to offer wholistic healthcare, medication assistance, urgent dental, and needs– based navigation services, provided by community volunteers and donors, for our neighbors in need.

As the ONLY Free Clinic in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County, we serve as "A Bridge To Health", filling in the gaps of healthcare for anyone with unmet needs, until they have access to sustainable, affordable primary care in the community.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ The Blue Ridge Free Clinic (BRFC) opened on April 12, 2021 in Harrisonburg, due to the closing of the Harrisonburg-Rockingham Free Clinic in December 2020. A team of passionate and determined professionals envisioned and developed a new and sustainable model of free healthcare services, as a "bridge to health". The community overwhelmingly responded. Within a few months, we had enough gifts to cover start-up expenses, were given exam room tables and furniture, and onboarded 70 volunteers, including 13 clinical staff. From April 2021 to today, we have cared for more than 1600 individuals with nowhere else to turn for medical care except an emergency room.

We have provided more than 5000 medical visits at no charge and with no barriers.

Blue Ridge Legal Services, Inc. (BRLS) is a nonprofit charitable civil legal aid program providing free legal assistance in civil matters of critical importance to low-income residents of the Shenandoah Valley and Roanoke Valley. BLRS focuses on four key areas: Elder Care and Protection; Preventing Homelessness; Financial Stability; and Domestic Violence and Family Law.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ In 1977, the first two legal aid programs in the Shenandoah Valley were founded, one in Waynesboro, Blue Ridge Legal Aid Society, the other in Harrisonburg, the HarrisonburgRockingham Legal Aid Society. These two fledgling organizations merged in 1979, becoming Blue Ridge Legal Services, with a service area that covered the Shenandoah Valley from Winchester to Staunton and Waynesboro. In 2001, our service area expanded to cover the Rockbridge region and the Roanoke Valley, allowing us to provide meaningful access to justice for the poor in even more communities. We now operate four full-time offices in Winchester, Harrisonburg, Lexington, and Roanoke.

MISSIONŋ Every young person in Harrisonburg and Rockingham should have the hope and opportunity to reach their full potential as individuals and contributing members of our community. That is the vision of Boys & Girls Club’s Board of Directors. The Club’s mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Imagine the joy on a child's face as they engage in enriching activities and form lifelong friendships within our Clubs. As one parent said to our Club Director, “This morning both kids asked if they could get to BGC early so they could spend extra time there today. Last week they both came home with stories they couldn't wait to tell us. They have made friends in the Club that will probably last a lifetime. You help make BGC a special place!” Our staff create these magical moments, fostering belonging and building self-confidence that propels young individuals to reach their full potential. More young people need these opportunities and supporting our Clubs means supporting the costs associated with quality staffing and programs.

Boys & Girls Clubs serve over 840 youth per year, more than any provider in the area (~5% of the public-school populations). Parents appreciate our reasonable fees and our quality staff who create great programs. But we have wait lists and we want those four children to not wait any more. This proposal assists in keeping fees low while maintaining good wages thus supporting both families and workers for the benefit of the youth.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Bridge of Hope Harrisonburg-Rockingham is an affiliate of a national network across the U.S. It was founded in the 1980's in Pennsylvania by two nurses who witnessed the impact of homelessness on single women and their children. Developing a holistic and communitycentered approach, the Bridge of Hope program model has become a nationally recognized model for ending family homelessness. Our local affiliate has been serving families in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County since 2010. Over the past 13 years, we have served 34 families, including 63 children, with the support of 20 local churches representing 10 denominations. We have a 96% success rate of families exiting the program with stability.

Case Management supports families in connecting to resources they need to reach their program goals to break the cycle of homelessness.

MISSION: The CWS mission is to transform communities around the globe through just and sustainable responses to hunger, poverty, displacement, and disaster. In Harrisonburg, CWS serves and advocates for those who have come to the United States in search of safety, stability, and a better life.

BRIEF HISTORY: Church World Service was born in the wake of the devastation of World War II. Seventeen Christian denominations came together “to do in partnership what none of us could hope to do as well alone.” In our early days, the CWS family mobilized more than 11 million pounds of food, clothing, and medical supplies for war-torn Europe and Asia. In the United States, we began to welcome refugees who were looking to start new lives in safety. The CWS Harrisonburg office was established in 1988 and has resettled over 4000 refugees since then. Many of those we welcomed went on to create generations of Americans who are community-involved, giving back to the country that gave them a new start.

That spirit is still at the heart of what we do.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ The Community Counseling Center has provided affordable counseling services to residents of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County for over 50 years, and from its founding, the Center has provided low-cost counseling services for members of the Harrisonburg/Rockingham community. As costs of counseling has increased over the years, the self-pay cost for clients using our Sliding Scale program has remained a fraction of the full cost of counseling. The goal of the Sliding Scale program and the Community Counseling Center as a whole is to serve everyone, regardless of their income and to not turn away anyone due to their inability to pay for counseling.

MISSIONŋ The Community Gear Library is a resource in the Shenandoah Valley to increase access to the outdoors for all members of our diverse community by providing information and gear.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ The Community Gear Library was founded in fall of 2022. In that short time, the community has shown support by donating tents, sleeping bags, sleeping pads, headlamps, hiking poles, hammocks, 50-liter backpack, and a child carrier.

Shenandoah Valley Bike Coalition has funded a website and a professionally shot promotional video to publicize the CGL. Massanutten Regional Library (MRL) will store, catalog, and check in/out items. Partnership with MRL will also allow us to reach beyond the Harrisonburg area. As the program and inventory grows, the CGL will be able to expand to MRLs 6 branch locations. These branches are in Elkton, Grottoes, Mt Crawford, Luray, Shenandoah, and Broadway, VA. CGL is fiscally sponsored by Virginia Organizing.

We are still in our new phase of operation and have discovered we have high costs associated with providing sliding scale fees, being a subsidy vendor, behavior support, inclusion support for those with special needs, fair wages to our staff, parent events, and links to businesses within our community.

The Corner Cupboard Food Pantry mission is to assist all people and particularly provide food and supplies for those in need. The Corner Cupboard helps to extend this vision by providing the food and supplies while treating every human being with dignity and respect regardless of race, gender, marital status, or religion, no exceptions.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ The Corner Cupboard Food Pantry has been a mainstay of downtown Harrisonburg for over 30 years. The Cupboard started in a closet at Emmanuel Episcopal Church, which serves as its fiscal sponsor. Volunteers passed out food bags for its first 25 years. Five years ago, it served 100 family members per month. In the past five years, the Corner Cupboard made dramatic changes to meet a growing food insecurity need. The pantry moved to a self-selection pantry and also to a larger space. The first move was to a 300 sq. ft. room and buying an additional freezer and refrigerator. The latest move, following the Pandemic, was transitioning into a 900 sq. ft. space and providing more food and supplies. The pantry now serves over 1000 per month.

HEALTH & WELLNESS MISSIONŋ Cross Keys Equine Therapy is an organization dedicated to providing quality equine-assisted therapy and learning activities. Our mission is to provide hope, healing, and opportunities for emotional growth to people of all ages through relationship with horses.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ CKET has been providing quality equine-assisted therapy services since 2011. A significant number of people with mental health issues will not seek services because of the cost. Our mission is to allow an alternative method of counseling for all people seeking mental health services regardless of age or income level. There are many services for children under the age of 18, but it is very difficult to find funding for people over 18 who desperately need services. For clients who are already struggling with attachment and/or trauma histories, an abrupt cancellation of services would be detrimental. Our goal with this project is to provide enough funding for those who would like to continue or obtain services to be able to do so.

MISSIONŋ Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, an initiative of The Community Foundation of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County, is a monthly book gifting program that mails FREE, age-appropriate books to all children under five in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County. We want to change these children’s stories by establishing reading routines, creating home libraries, and preparing children for future academic success.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ The Imagination Library launched in 1995 by the Dollywood Foundation and served children living in Sevier County, Tennessee. After much success, the program was replicated nationally in 2000. By 2019, it had expanded to Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, and Ireland. Since its inception, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library has distributed over 200 million books. The Community Foundation of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County became an affiliate of the program in July 2021 and officially launched our area’s Imagination Library in March 2022. As of October 2023, we have over 2,600 children actively enrolled with an additional 612 who have graduated or aged out of the program. By the end of this November, our program will be celebrating 37,972 books mailed to Harrisonburg-Rockingham children aged 0 to 4.

Family Life Resource Center is a nonprofit, faith based counseling agency serving the behavioral health needs of children and adults, couples and families. The center works with individuals and couples to promote hope, health and healing. We welcome all faith perspectives and all individuals.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Family Life Resource Center has been serving the community's mental health needs for over 36 years with outpatient services. Most projects such as cleaning and lawn maintenance are handled by the employees. Other larger projects are done by volunteers. However, these repair projects can only be performed by licensed contractors. These repairs are vital to the business continuing to serve the community. We have depleted the cash flow with the two air conditioning unit replacements that were needed this past year. We cannot make additional needed repairs without the support of a donor. The agency offers a sliding fee scale for those that cannot afford services as well as free sessions to those affected by losing a loved one to suicide.

MISSIONŋ Gemeinschaft Home provides cutting edge therapeutic services to nonviolent offenders who have been released or diverted from incarceration in support of a transition to healthy community living.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Established in 1985, Gemeinschaft Home has expanded into an innovative nonprofit organization, offering both residential and nonresidential programs for criminal-justice involved individuals. We collaborate with local court services, attorneys, and probation officers to ensure that each participant in the program has the vital resources and support to return to life after incarceration or to provide a supervised alternative to incarceration. Gemeinschaft Home provides individuals in transition an opportunity to restore a sense of wholeness in their lives, maintaining a compassionate space that provides quality shelter, food, case management, job and life coaching, and an overall model for daily living and responsible decision-making.

MISSIONŋ To serve our community by providing compassionate, high quality, intergenerational care that encourages connection, growth, and fellowship.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Generations Crossing has been a pillar of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County for over 21 years. From our humble beginnings in a church basement serving only 18 adults, we have grown into an organization that at our highest capacity serves 24 adults and over 100 children from birth to school age. At the core of our mission are our intergenerational activities in which the children and adults in our care spend time together, growing, and building meaningful relationships.

Over the years, we have been a partner in the lives of more than 530 local families. With continued support from the community and grant funding, we hope to be able to continue to serve the most vulnerable populations in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County.

MISSIONŋ HDR's mission is to build downtown Harrisonburg as a destination where small businesses thrive and people enjoy memorable experiences.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ When a new business owner moved into downtown, she shared that her friends in the deaf community supported her but seldom came downtown. Deeper digging revealed an opportunity to teach businesses effective ways for appropriate and sensitive engagement with customers who are living with disabilities. Focus groups, surveys, and research identified a need for a training that builds the confidence of workers to help them interact with with grace and confidence with customers who are living with disabilities. We identified a gap as most trainings we found focus on ADA accessibility. After conducting an in-person training on this topic, we became determined to produce on-demand training videos to help new employees in our area for years to come.

When employees do not have experience engaging with individuals living with disabilities, they often feel unsure of how to interact and fear doing the "wrong thing." These videos will help build valuable skills and improve customer experiences and accessibility.

To provide full-day childcare and learning opportunities for children in a secure and nurturing environment.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ HRCDCC has provided affordable, quality child care with a sliding fee scale since 1971. After 30 years in one church, we had to move. During the process of finding a new home we realized that owning a building with space designed to meet the needs of children and their families was the best way to secure our program into perpetuity.

Our DWTS of the Burg fundraiser raised over $1,000,000 and allowed us to purchase a building, pay off the mortgage, design the building and apply for necessary permits. There is still a funding gap to complete the project. Completion of the kitchen allows us to continue to provide nutritious meals and snacks to the children.

PROJECTŋ C ¯ eÁp f C e²cpa KpÁcle Tp e p eŋ Se¯Áe be² úøúû Á Maä úøúü After fundraising for more than 13 years, we are able to start renovation of the building that we purchased in 2017. We have had to divide our renovation into two phases. The first phase allows us to renovate the building to serve our existing program. To cut costs, we did not include the buildout of the kitchen. Consistent with our mission to meet the needs of children, our program has always provided breakfast, lunch and snack as part of the cost of care, following guidelines from CACFP. T Áa C ¹Á f P² ecÁ

FAITH BASED MISSIONŋ To introduce adolescents to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith. A crucial component to our mission statement is ensuring that we are not leaving any kids behind. We want to reach every kid, from every community.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Operating strong since 1941, Young Life has grown to serve over 2 million kids annually across all 50 states and 104 countries. Our programs, including YoungLives, are based on evidence that kids need adult engagement beyond their families to thrive in adolescence and into adulthood. Our people are our most critical assets. They are passionately invested in the lives of local kids as they serve alongside parents, coaches, teachers, and other community leaders to give teens the strongest foundation for a successful spiritual, personal and professional future. In Harrisonburg/Rockingham, YoungLives’ mission of serving teen mothers in both group and 1-on-1 settings, cannot thrive without an adequate number of well-trained staff and volunteers.

New Creation is on mission to creatively counteract human trafficking with a local heart and a global approach. We work with over 90 partner organizations from 5 continents to create dignified work for those rescued from, or vulnerable to human trafficking around the world.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ New Creation started when our founders, Sabrina and Steve, heard about the realities of human trafficking and knew they had to do something.

They started selling paper beads, made in Uganda, from their dining room table to create opportunity for artisans. Ten years later, after opening our brick and mortar shoppe in 2015, we have linked arms with over 100 organizations to provide dignified work to some of the most vulnerable. We are at a point where our impact will be capped without expansion. We are so grateful for all that we have accomplished, but we know there is more work to be done. Our heart is to continue advocating for prevention education and providing dignified job opportunities for local women who are overcoming.

Every aspect of this project is centered around job creation locally and globally. This building will allow us to open a social enterprise cafe and employ local women overcoming significant challenges. It will also allow space for additional partnerships with organizations working to provide dignified work for survivors of, or those vulnerable to trafficking.

INTERNATIONAL MISSIONŋ Our mission is to engage immigrants, connect cultures, and build community, with a vision for a thriving community that everyone can call home.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Our clients commonly encounter barriers when accessing community resources. When they do reach out to service providers, many struggle with being prepared for those conversations, unable in the moment to provide information such as an address or a callback number or to leave a voicemail with that information. Some service providers are unable or unwilling to bridge the language, cultural, and educational gaps, leading to unmet needs. This is a place for clients to develop skills and build confidence in navigating those seemingly commonplace interactions, increasing their ability to get those needs met. We also intend to invite our community partners to host workshops, seminars, and provide services to the community in this space.

ARTS & CULTURE MISSIONŋ OASIS Fine Art and Craft is an artisan cooperative, which started in October 2000. Our co-op provides a space for local artists to show and sell their work, inspires the community with public art shows and First Friday events, and enacts outreach programs to make art accessible for our community.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ “The Sassy Lady” mural was designed and painted

by OASIS member Gemma Amendola. OASIS raised the funds for this mural through a "gofundme" campaign. The painting occurred in July 2023 and was widely discussed in the media (TV, print and social). Several Water Street merchants contacted OASIS to discuss a mural for their properties. We have chosen to work very closely with Beyond Restaurant. We know that murals by experienced muralists are expensive and usually not accommodated through an organization’s discretionary funds. We need more public art on Water Street as it is a highly trafficked area in proximity to a main parking garage, popular restaurants, the library, shops, and more! Help us beautify downtown Harrisonburg!

MISSIONŋ On the Road Collaborative’s mission is to “empower youth by providing equal access to educational opportunities and hands-on career experiences.”

BRIEF HISTORYŋ During On the Road Collaborative’s inaugural year in 2015, only one person ran the Emerging Chefs program at Skyline Middle School. In 2017, Emerging Chefs received a $45,000 grant that kickstarted an expansion of our team and services. We grew from a team of 1 to 7 and from serving 1 to 3 schools in Harrisonburg. We provide continued opportunities from middle school to high school. Emerging Chefs continues to be one of the most popular career enrichment programs in On the Road that is always full with a waiting list at all sites, has excellent attendance and retention, and youth continue year after year. We even have two instructors now who graduated from Emerging Chefs with On the Road and have come back to teach the next generation.

MISSIONŋ Our Community Place's mission is to build a safe, loving community of restoration and hope for all, specially those facing homelessness and other adverse experiences.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ OCP started in 1992 as a soup kitchen. In 2008 it opened as a shelter in the current location. In 2011 it closed its night services and remained a day shelter for homeless and marginalized persons. In 2018 we expanded into case management and added a housing program in order to help people experiencing long-term chronic homelessness to be able to move out of homelessness. We provide supportive case management to help prevent them from returning to homeless by providing supports to help them pay rent monthly, resolve conflicts with neighboring tenants, learn how to work with their landlord respectfully, and overcome other barriers they face resulting from histories of developmental trauma, mental illness, abuse, and substance use.

MISSION: COORDINATE SERVICES FOR PEOPLE IN NEED; PARTNER WITH OUR CLIENTS BY HELPING THEM WITH ASSISTANCE THEY MAY REQUIRE; IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES IN OUR COMMUNITY.

BRIEF HISTORY: People Helping People was created when a local social worker in 1992, Wilhelmina Johnson, saw that after leaving her office people were going from church to church seeking further assistance.

She knew that the if the faith communities united the help could be even greater. What started as just a few churches believing as a vision has grown now to over 50 congregations supporting our mission. People Helping People is possible only through the generosity of our community support and the dedication of our volunteers and we focus our effort on providing financial assistance to avoid disconnection of basic utilities such as electric, water and heating oils.

BRIEF HISTORY: Cancer disproportionally affects the Shenandoah Valley, taking close to 800 lives per year. That's why it seems like everywhere you turn you hear another story of someone being diagnosed. Worse yet, the need for cancer care continues to increase. And no one is turned away at the Sentara RMH Hahn Cancer Center based on their inability to pay. Those most in need come to us facing their most difficult times. Your support can help detect disease in these patients sooner, expedite care they need, and build a stronger path to recovery. Your support for the Hope Fund is critical.

The mission of RBT is to inspire through the beauty of classical ballet.

BRIEF HISTORY: Aspects of this project were included in the project proposed in the Earlynn J. Miller application to purchase the space that RBT is currently renting. In that project we proposed extending the duct work into areas that are not centrally heated or cooled to make it possible to increase community services in these spaces. If the EJM project is not funded, improving costume storage would be the first priority. For the Giving Back application, we are including measures to increase storage space.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW:

PROJECT: C ¹ÁÇ e ¹Á ²age p ¯² Ýe e Á Tp e p eŋ Ja Ça²ä úøúü Á Feb²Ça²ä úøúü After years of fundraising, we are finally able to purchase new professionally built costumes for The Nutcracker. These expensive costumes will last longer if the costume storage has climate control.

Climate control will extend the life of the costumes for RBT's ballets. Duct work can be extended to this area from the dancer waiting room. To increase storage space we also want to install 2 levels of clothes racks, additional shelving and better lighting.

MISSION: At Rocktown History we keep and tell the stories of the Harrisonburg and Rockingham County area and its people and their influences on our lives and shared future.

BRIEF HISTORY: By continuing to provide our free programs inperson and online, we’ll be able to deliver our mission to a broader audience. Rocktown History’s mission of local and family history collection, preservation, and education began 125 years ago and continues today through exhibitions, publications, and programs that encourage awareness and curiosity for stories of the past. During the pandemic, we were able to continue our live speaker presentations on topics from genealogy to music by taking them online.

Recordings of those events helped us to establish a YouTube channel which now provides an ondemand resource for individuals and schools, including the recent Knocking Down Walls documentary created by local students which has over 1,000 views.

MISSIONŋ Second Home Learning Center provide children with a safe place to learn and grow, before & after school, offering support that ensures academic success.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Second Home L. C. is a licensed before & after school child care, 501C(3) facility, serving the community since September 2007. In 2021 we began operating as an independent non-profit agency. Initially it was Spotwood E.S. Principal that approached the pastors at Muhlenberg Lutheran Church to serve families that had latchkey children. Beginning the academic school year 2007-08, Second Home began providing a safe, licensed, before & after school care to Spotswood E.S. children, focused on homework assistance. We continued to add other E.S. & M.S, students, as the city school buses could transport the children of low income families in Harrisonburg with affordable, non-faith based, academically focused, before and after school care.

HRHA houses hundreds of families with students and offers a Family SelfSufficiency program that includes budgeting, credit improvement, job training, and homebuyer education. When possible, HRHA has given out scholarships to deserving students of housing choice voucher families. Education is key to achieving self-sufficiency and financial independence. Our families work hard to move to renting independently or buying homes. Their students work hard at school to improve their chances of lifetime success. We would like to recognize their efforts by offering more support for their continuing education. HRHA has awarded one scholarship for the 2023-2024 school year.

MISSIONŋ The Shenandoah Valley Bach Festival (SVBF) gathers world-renowned artists and inquisitive audiences to provide public performance and educational initiatives that build more equitable and inclusive access to live performing arts.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Founded in 1992 out of an appreciation for Bach, SVBF first aimed to use classical music to bring together the Mennonite community with the greater Shenandoah Valley. Today, SVBF brings together diverse artists and audiences from all over the region, which has experienced rapid growth in minority and ethnic diversity, as well as designation as a federal refugee resettlement area. When the Festival began, it was the first of its kind as there were no major orchestras within an hour's driving distance and remains the only orchestral music festival of its size in the Valley.

SVBF aims to continue this tradition in the 21st century by supporting initiatives and collaborations that echo the cross-cultural landscape of the performing arts today.

COMMUNITY ADVOCACY MISSIONŋ The Coalition’s mission is to ensure everyone in the Valley can comfortably and easily walk and bike as part of their daily life.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ The Shenandoah Valley Bicycle Coalition has a 40year history in the Valley. Originally called Bikes for Refugees, this initiative began in November 2015 when a group of refugees in Harrisonburg identified transportation as a major challenge. For many of our underserved community members, bicycling is the most efficient and reliable transportation. The program has been allvolunteer run, and we are working towards hiring part-time staff for 2024 to help the program expand and grow capacity.

Instruction is provided by trained volunteer tutors under the supervision of a paid teacher/tutor manager and students’ progress is monitored via a standardized educational testing system. SL charges students a nominal registration fee for services, which is waived in cases of inability to pay.

FAMILY VIOLENCE SHELTERS SÁ e HaÝe

MISSIONŋ To walk alongside survivors of sexual exploitation in their journey of healing.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Stone Haven was founded in 2020 by Sydney Hayslett. Sydney has worked with survivors of sexual exploitation for the past 8 years in various capacities. Her most recent experience was at Rest Stop Ministries in TN, where she served for 3.5 years in many different roles, including Assistant Residential Manager and Community Outreach Manager. Sydney sees the need for a similar program in her hometown of Harrisonburg, VA and wants to create a safe space to welcome women who have experienced sexual exploitation and trafficking. Stone Haven was launched to be modeled after organizations like Rest Stop Ministries, Thistle Farms, and Wellspring Living.

We want to offer women a space to come and do the hard work of healing.

SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION SÁ²e gÁl I Pee²¹ MISSIONŋ Strength In Peers is a peer-run Recovery Community Organization. Toward our vision, our mission is to offer hope, support and advocacy for those seeking recovery so that we can build resilience and thrive in our lives and communities.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ As a Recovery Community Organization, our core service is peer support, a method of giving and receiving help based on respect, shared responsibility and mutual agreement of what is helpful. The Youth Mentoring Program comes from our personal experiences with these challenges as youth and our struggle to access support from adults and professionals who we believed understood us and did not judge us. We successfully piloted mentoring youth based on peer support in Shenandoah County under a 3 year federal grant. Our grant ended at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and we were unable to sustain the program. We are now reestablishing services to meet the increased need for behavioral health support among youth in our communities.

DISABILITY SERVICES MISSIONŋ Our mission is to promote and protect the human rights of people with developmental disabilities (PWDD) and actively support their full inclusion and participation in the community throughout the arc of their lifetimes.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ When Community Engagement replaced traditional, sedentary, center-based services in 2017, we quickly noticed remarkable improvements in cognitive ability, social skills, and physical health of our PWDD, including weight loss. Doctors commented on these improvements at our individuals ' annual physicals and advised them to "keep on doing whatever they were doing". This was the genesis of SpArc Fit. By adding intentional exercise (yoga, swimming, walking, etc.) and healthy eating classes, PWDD are becoming healthier.

Continuation and expansion of this program are essential as the impacts are both life-extending (quantity) and life-changing (quality) for participants. The JMU mentoring partnership will strengthen the project.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ We realized early on that we have been falling short in the area of maximizing the use of social media, our website and our direct contacts to promote our vision and mission and educate the public regarding the mental health benefits of equine-assisted services and thus increase access to such services. As a volunteer organization, we have not been able to recruit someone that could commit the time needed to manage these three areas in a consistent and professional fashion. We have tested the waters this year in contracting with a graduate student to cover these areas for us. The benefit has been phenomenal and we would like to be able to continue with this position next year. A bonus has been educating a young adult on non-profit work.

We feel to bring on an intern to focus on these three areas would support our mission in such a way as to increase access to such services, our ultimate goal.

COMMUNITY ADVOCACY MISSIONŋ Improving lives by connecting and mobilizing community resources.

VISION: We envision a strong, equitable, and accessible network of support for working households in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County.

VALUES: Equity. Community-Focused. Collaboration.

Integrity. Intentionality.

GOALS: 1. To support the financial stability of ALICE households within the Harrisonburg and Rockingham Community a. Develop and launch the RockBurg CARES Network.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ In July 1957, the Harrisonburg- Rockingham Chamber of Commerce created the United Fund and affiliated with the United Community Fund Councils. The intent was to engage businesses in helping charities meet the human service needs of working households. For years, that’s what United Ways have done–raise funds and then provide those funds to local non-profit organizations who, in turn, offer direct services to those in need. As times change, so have United Ways. In recent years, many local United Ways, including ours, have emphasized impact on people in the local community over fundraising. We’re no longer seen as a pass-through funder for other organizations.

We are the organization that supports the financial stability of working households.

Promoting self-direction among people with disabilities and removing barriers to independence in the community.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ VAIL began in 1989 with serving 5 individuals with developmental disabilities. VAIL moved these individuals into their own homes and began to provide services to empower them to live independently in the community. VAIL consistently serves between 450-525 individuals per year now. At the conclusion of the pandemic, VAIL was approached to provide programming for individuals with physical disabilities as the social isolation and lack of recreation was challenging pre-pandemic but exacerbated during the pandemic. VAIL rose to this challenge and brought the Harrisonburg Cardinals wheelchair Basketball team under our services and created the OAR program. The programs are providing needed socialization, recreation, exercise, and wellness.

Valley Village enhances the capacity of members to age in their homes and promotes the well-being of members by offering social connections, wellness activities, educational opportunities, mutual support, and guidance for navigating the transitions of life.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Discussion of a Village to support people aging at home began in 2007. Exploratory meetings were held, a Steering Committee was formed and Park View Village was established under the auspices of VAIL in 2009. Social and education events and services were offered. 501(c)3 status was granted in 2013. The Village began contracting for help with the website and directory in 2014.

In 2018, seeking to expand membership, the Board rebranded as Valley Village [VV]. As the organization grew, new committees, new programs and new services developed. In 2021, VV adopted a Strategic Plan to grow member numbers and finances, expand care services, and strengthen the board. Today VV has 150 members and offers 3-4 activities monthly and several services.

The mission of the Virginia Quilt Museum is to cultivate and preserve the quilting arts in Virginia.

The museum's goal is to inspire and engage a diverse community by building and preserving quilt collections, sharing historical and contemporary exhibitions, and providing educational opportunities for all ages.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Along with supporting the mission and vision of the Virginia Quilt Museum, this multi-purpose space will help VQM achieve two of the goals laid out in the museum’s 2023-2027 Strategic Plan.

One priority is Scholarship, specifically to foster scholarship in quilting through collection research, sharing resources, and supporting quilt artists and scholars. The transformation of the physical space will allow VQM to offer artists and scholars a place to work, study, and collaborate.

The second priority from the Strategic Plan that this project will help VQM achieve is to promote and expand community engagement through programs and events. Creating this multi-purpose space is the first step towards completing these goals.

This space will include a permanent exhibition which will answer our most asked question: what is a quilt?

MISSIONŋ To empower low-income, working households in Harrisonburg-Rockingham to improve their quality of life by assisting them with their transportation needs.

BRIEF HISTORYŋ Way to Go began as a program under CART in 2002, later becoming an independent organization in 2005. After being run by volunteers, they hired an Executive Director in January 2015. Today, that role is divided between a Client Services Coordinator and a Director of Development & Public Relations. As the sole organization dedicated to addressing transportation barriers for low-income workers in HarrisonburgRockingham and the surrounding area, Way to Go's services are crucial for these individuals to access community services and opportunities to improve their lives reliably and affordably.
