A fun crowd of 500 nonprofits and cause champions attended the Tarrant County Philanthro-PARTY produced by the North Texas Community Foundation, with the help of Project Partners. The event, a kick-off to North Texas Giving Day, took place in Fort Worth at our host site, Shipping & Receiving, and featured entertainment by renowned singer-songwriter Hayes Carll. Every guest, greeted by WORTH volunteers, also enjoyed a free burger meal, compliments of the In-N-Out® Cookout Trailer, Alchemy Pops (who generously provided the first 150 for free as well as donated 20% of the evening’s proceeds) and social media awareness via Cloud Booth Fort Worth. North Texas Giving Day, powered by Communities Foundation of Texas, is an online giving event designed to empower every person to give back to their community by supporting local nonprofits and causes they care about.

Birdville ISD Education Foundation Develops New Strategic Plan
After facilitating several strategic planning work sessions where very committed Executive Committee members of the Birdville ISD Education Foundation affirmed their mission and an assertive program of work to achieve that mission, we helped develop a new strategic plan for the organization. That same Executive Committee met today in a two-hour budget workshop to assure a proposed budget that would then support this new direction and program of work. Kudos to this hard-working group of volunteers dedicated to the success of the Birdville ISD students and staff.
Gladney Center for Adoption Convenes Executive Committee
Project Partners was thrilled to serve Gladney Center for Adoption once again, this time as facilitator for the Executive Committee retreat held at the Fort Worth headquarters. The primary goal for these executive committee members and their staff leadership team was to reach a clear understanding of the strategic direction of Gladney's key programs. We'd say "mission accomplished" for this impressive group dedicated to creating bright futures through adoption.
