Treehouse gives foster children a childhood and a future.

No entrepreneur can succeed without a strong network of support. But because of the ways access and opportunity have traditionally been distributed, social entrepreneurs and diverse founders are less likely to know people from top colleges and companies than their counterparts. This means they have less robust networks to draw on for advice, customers, funding, and professional growth. We call this the Relationship Gap. Goodie Nation exists to eliminate the relationship gap that stands in the way of success for too many promising entrepreneurs, especially those who are people of color, women, or aren’t located in coastal financial centers. By making sure that every entrepreneur, no matter their background or location, can access the relationships they need to thrive, we are building a more sustainable and prosperous future for all.

For this rural community to thrive, our children must thrive. Rural Education Partners builds relationships throughout our community. We help our partners bring their resources together in creative ways so our children can thrive in the place we call home. In a rural place time extends across generations. The next generation is the future of rural America.

Stafford Animal Shelter is a no-kill, open-door shelter. We accept every pet in need: abandoned or homeless, unwanted litters from unspayed and unneutered animals, and those confiscated by control officers for cruelty. The only nonprofit animal care facility in Park County, we serve the people and pets of the greater Southwestern Montana community as the only Shelter in the region that accepts all lost or unwanted pets; not just dogs and cats. We also serve as the care facility for animals impounded for being at large, cruelty cases, and emergencies by city and county animal control officers. We open our doors to nearly a thousand animals each year with approximately half being reclaimed and half adopted. Every adoptable cat, dog, and the rabbit is spayed or neutered prior to adoption.

Louisiana Boxer Rescue, located in New Orleans, provides a safe haven for boxers surrendered by their owners or that have come from an animal shelter. Unlike a shelter, our rescues live with a foster family during their interim where they are cared for and loved, receive behavior evaluations and observation that assists us in finding them the best suited permanent homes. They receive necessary veterinary care, including required vaccinations, spaying/neutering and heart worm treatment.
