BANDON CARES is - An EVENT
- An on-going project to
promote collaboration among Bandon's nonprofits
BANDON CARES was an
EVENT on November 15, 2008 that showcased the Bandon Community's nonprofit organizations, leadership and volunteers.
The Bandon Cares
Event is divided into two sessions:
The afternoon session is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Starting at
1:00 p.m., the public has an opportunity to learn about the nonprofits in Bandon. It is also an opportunity
for nonprofits to introduce themselves to the community and recruit volunteers.
The morning session, from 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., is a meeting for the leadership
and volunteers of Bandon's nonprofit organizations. It will focus on networking among local nonprofit organizations
and meeting with potential funding entities. The goal is to encourage and develop collaboration opportunities for
Bandon nonprofits. Then in the afternoon, those volunteers will staff displays and exhibits and greet the public during the
Volunteer Fair.
Sponsored
by The Ford Family Foundation and organized by Ford Institute Leadership Program participants and other community volunteers,
the Bandon Cares Event is part of a larger effort to support collaboration among Bandon’s community service organizations.
