The Community Foundation of the Chattahoochee Valley, Inc., is one of ten community foundations across the U.S. participating in On the Table, a national initiative funded by Knight Foundation, following a successful pilot in 2017. On the Table replicates an annual civic engagement initiative of the same name developed by The Chicago Community Trust in 2014.
For a third year in a row, residents of Columbus and the surrounding areas are invited to be part of this exciting initiative on Oct. 22, 2019 to discuss not only what’s great about our community, but also ways to make it even better — more sustainable, just, safe, strong and vibrant. We'll come together to talk, collaborate, and become more civically involved and committed to our community. The issues we face today don’t often offer quick fixes. On the contrary, progress will only result when residents, organizations, businesses and government work together to make contributions that add up to a greater solution than we can achieve on our own. On the Table is a starting place for meaningful conversation. What happens next is up to you.
At Community Foundation of the Chattahoochee Valley, we know big ideas can spring from small conversations and that people invest in what they help create. When we come together as a community to listen to and learn from each other, we have the power to impact neighborhoods, communities and lives.
That’s what On the Table is all about. Get involved in On the Table by joining a conversation or hosting your own. Anyone can host a table, individuals, groups, or organizations. Interested in hosting a table? Email us at onthetablechatt@cfcv.com.
