The Community Foundation of Boone County is excited to introduce a new initiative designed to foster collaboration and innovation among local nonprofit leaders: Coffee Chats. This series of intimate, small-group meetings aims to create a supportive environment where leaders can connect, share ideas, and learn from one another.
Coffee Chats provide an informal setting for nonprofit professionals serving Boone County to discuss pressing challenges, explore best practices, and generate new ideas. Each session is limited in size, ensuring that every participant has the opportunity to engage meaningfully and receive personalized feedback.
The initiative is grounded in the belief that collaboration is key to driving positive change within the community.
“Nonprofit leaders often face similar hurdles, and Coffee Chats will allow them to share experiences and solutions in a relaxed atmosphere. We want to encourage open dialogue and foster a sense of community among those dedicated to serving Boone County.”
By bringing together diverse voices and perspectives, Coffee Chats not only aim to enhance individual organizations but also to strengthen the overall nonprofit sector in Boone County. The series is part of CFBC’s ongoing commitment to support and empower local nonprofits.
For nonprofit leaders interested in joining the conversation, please contact Hope Coons, Director of Community Engagement, at hope@communityfoundationbc.org. Join us in this exciting opportunity to connect, learn, and grow together as we work towards a thriving community for all!
