2024 Community Impact Report: Celebrating 90 Years of Collective Action

As we look back on this year’s events and activities, we are deeply appreciative of our members’ collective impact throughout the greater Greensboro community. Your ideas, connections, time, and donations make a big difference in the lives of many. Last winter, in recognition of the GA’s 90 years, the Board engaged in a strategic review of priorities and updated our Mission and Vision statements to guide our commitment to this community as we approach our century mark.

Together, we are finding creative ways to celebrate the arts and culture, steward our lakes and natural environment, strengthen emergency and medical services, address unmet needs and food security, and enhance educational and recreation opportunities for all. We value our relationships with our neighbors and are inspired by all that our partnerships make possible – whether responding quickly to disasters or investing in long-range plans. This report includes a sampling of some of the initiatives the GA membership has helped make possible this past year.

If you are able, we hope you will consider a year-end gift to the Fund for Greensboro (FFG) in your annual giving or estate plans. Gifts of any amount to the Unrestricted, Lake Reserve or Endowment Fund will help advance our mission of connecting and enhancing our greater Greensboro community, protecting our lakes and environment, and supporting a vibrant local economy now and for years to come. Donate here.

We welcome your energy, interests, and perspectives on any of our committees or working groups. Thank you for joining us,

Naomi Ranz-Schleifer, President and Cathy Irwin, FFG Chair
