Our 2008 Membership Drive runs from June 30 through August 22, 2008.
Our Membership Drive cannot be successful without you. Can you commit to being a Membership Drive Team Captain this year?
While we are looking for organizations to support our efforts again this year, we are also hoping that individuals will get involved in our 2008 Membership Drive. Individuals and organizations can recruit new Members from their family, community, place of business, house of worship, children’s schools, etc. The sky is the limit.

 As we begin celebrating 30 years of providing a variety of services to this community, we have also embark upon a year of great introspection. Over the course of 30 years, we have proudly served over 25,000 people in this community. We have successfully trained and placed thousands in jobs, helped tons of children improve their technology skills, paved the way for hundreds of at-risk young adults to choose a more positive path, and educated many families about building good credit and buying a home. However, as the needs of the community evolve and grow, so must we.
As such, it is now time for us to reevaluate our programs and services. We finished our community Strategic Planning process in May. The information that we gathered during those sessions is being analyzed. However, rest assured that we will share the results with you soon!
In the meantime, please review our Visionary Roadmap, which presents the community we serve and those who support us with an overview of our key initiatives for the upcoming year. It will serve as a loose guide and details will be added as we navigate the strategic planning process. We encourage and invite all members of the community to become engaged because our success is commensurate upon your support, insight, and guidance.
Yours in the movement…
