Inspire Greene - A Community Builder & Leadership Course

IN TODAY'S WORLD, every county needs a group of community-oriented leaders that have the ability, motivation, and foresight to seize beneficial opportunities for our hometown and its residents.  With Greene County's rich network of for-profit businesses and nonprofit organizations, there are many recreational, cultural, and civic leadership opportunities.  Inspire Greene - a Community Builder and Leadership Course - combines an understanding of board governance principals with active leadership experiences to bring like-minded individuals together for truly bold results.

THE GOAL OF Inspire Greene is to:
  • Educate - Participants will cultivate their understanding of Greene County and become familiar with key people, organizations, and challenges within our area.
  • Collaborate - Class members will learn to appreciate and acknowledge the various perspectives and contests of their fellow leaders and find common ground for strengthening Greene County.
  • Serve - Participants will develop an ethic of service that will take them beyond personal interests to tangibly engaging in volunteerism and community involvement.
  • Exemplify - Class members will model a community-focused leadership, causing others to aspire to the same standards, while also establishing a network of relationships that will enrich both their personal and professional lives.

Course Expectations:
Over 10 weeks, class members will learn about community and nonprofit leadership and how the two, together, can create an impact within Greene County.  After the course is completed, participants will be qualified to join a nonprofit board and, if interested, will be added to a potential member listing for local agencies to access. 

Course Participation Policy:
Participants of Inspire Greene are expected to attend and fully participate in all sessions in their entirety.  Because there are only 10 classes, it is recommended that participants miss no more than two sessions.  However, we recognize there maybe times when participants are unable to attend due to illness or emergencies.  During those times, a zoom link will be provided to the participant, if appropriate.
Pricing:
The cost of the course is $300 per person.  If an individual and/or company is unable to pay the full registration fee, scholarships are available.  The price includes 10 presentations, course materials (printed and digital), dinner, snacks, and drinks.

Please contact MaChal Forbes at 724-852-1009 / mforbes@greenecountyunitedway.org for more information regarding scholarships.

Registration:
Due to space limitations, Inspire Greene's 2023 course can accommodate a maximum of 16 people.  To apply, please visit www.greenecountyunitedway.org/inspiregreene2023application.
Community Impact Project Proposal:
Throughout the course, class members will be teamed up to find creative solutions to a local agency challenge.  If your nonprofit is interested in providing an issue or concern you are facing, please complete the proposal at www.greenecountyunitedway.org/inspiregreenenpproposal.
