Michael Fuller, a senior in a graduating class of just 23 students in Trout Lake, Washington, has long been interested in a career in IT—possibly even cybersecurity. However, his school wasn’t able to offer any courses in those fields. In many rural areas, Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs face significant challenges due to low enrollment numbers and difficulty attracting qualified instructors.
Our Focus Areas
Economic Opportunity
We advance solutions that expand equitable access to economic opportunity. We focus on workforce development programs and career technical education.
Social Impact Theatre
Live theatre has the power to spark dialogue and provide a lens to process the critical issues of our day. We support theatres in Western states that are igniting positive changes in their communities through their programming on the stage.
Supportive Cancer Care
We work to create more equitable access of care programs that specialize in addressing the clinical, psychosocial, and spiritual needs of patients and their loved ones facing cancer and other life-threatening diseases – a model called supportive care.
