One Valley Community Foundation

Philanthropy is poppin, and it's One Valley Community Foundation's Roman Empire.

Strategic planning is more than a document; it’s a catalyst for focus, engagement, and progress.

Join us next Friday for the final Nonprofit Café session of the season with Kari Anderson of Incite! Consulting. This session will demystify the planning process and help you design one that fits your organization’s capacity and culture, so you can move forward with clarity, confidence, and a practical roadmap.

Stronger fundraising starts with stronger leaders, and this week we’re celebrating the close of our 2026 Advancement Academy cohort.

Through sessions led by the incredible Stillwater Strategy Partners team, nonprofit leaders from across Gallatin County came together to sharpen their fundraising strategies, strengthen donor communications, and build sustainable development practices to carry their missions forward.

Programs like Advancement Academy are made possible by partners who believe in building capacity across our nonprofit sector. Thank you to Yellowstone Club Community Foundation for your support of this program and your continued investment in thriving, resilient communities across our region.

From big ideas to practical tools, this cohort leaves with the confidence and skills to grow their impact, and we’re excited to see what comes next.

Together, we are strengthening the nonprofit community, one leader at a time.
