CapDev

What are the vital conditions necessary for a community to thrive? The 2nd Annual Thriving Together Community Convening invited grassroots, civic, business, and nonprofit leaders to consider this very question. Marketing Manager, Stephanie Flores de Valgaz was in attendance as part of CapDev's continued commitment to understand the needs of the clients and sector we serve. One key takeaway? Addressing these vital conditions demands COLLABORATION at every level. We are encouraged by the numerous leaders participating in this meaningful work, including those from past and current clients, Bookmarks, Crossnore Communities for Children, CREATIVE CORRIDORS COALITION Habitat for Humanity of Forsyth County, and The Winston-Salem Foundation and we look forward to continuing to partner with mission-driven organizations in their commitment to building a more vibrant and equitable future for all. The 2nd Annual Thriving Together Community Convening was presented by Action 4 Equity, Love Out Loud, Forsyth Futures, Crossnore Communities for Children, Center for Trauma Resilient Communities, Forsyth Technical Community College, Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust, Piedmont Triad Regional Council, Imprints Cares, The Winston-Salem Foundation, and ReThink Health- The Rippel Foundation
