Roots School Update!
At Roots School, we believe a strong foundation is key to the sustainability and success of our organization. Over the past few months, we have been building that foundation, deepening our roots, and gathering a wide and diverse base of support.
From just a seed of an idea in the Spring of 2015, we have now gained a name for ourselves, a mission, vision, and basic structure, local, regional, and national connections, experience in grant writing and business development, a preliminary budget, and a stronger sense of how Roots can meet our community needs.
One of our biggest and most exciting next steps is to create a committed and diverse team of individuals who can really launch Roots into its next phase of development which will include business incorporation, proposal writing, funding, and curriculum design. Do you or someone you know have experience in any of these areas? Roots will only become a reality if we make it happen together. Email me, call me, or stop me on the sidewalk if you want to chat about it!
Roots is also in the process of reviewing land and building options for our home. Our ideal space is centered on forested acreage. Contact us if you have connections or ideas!
