The park and comm unity center has been deteriorating for a number of years and the community center is now closed due to mold. The project includes not only a major rehabilitation of the community center and park but also include new park features (outdoor auditorium, skate park, BBQ/picnic areas, and a new tote lot) and an expanded community center to include a community library, additional space for computer classrooms, and an industrial kitchen. With a micro-grid added, the community will be able to second as a emergency center in disaster events.

Rural Community Development

Community Development   is a process whereby diverse and representative groups of community members come together to take collective action and generate solutions (plans) for common problems; building livable, sustainable communities in the process.

Rural Community Development   is the above, with an understanding that many rural communities lack the resources and capacity to manage this process without assistance, training, resources, and technical assistance.

Why
Aside from the most important reason (it’s needed), if not for our rural communities who would manage our forests? Who would protect our waterways? Who would put the food on our plates? Who would provide those services travelers expect as they drive the many freeways?

California’s rural communities have, as we all know, very limited resources. The more donations we receive the less community funding we will need. Thank you.
