CEKC PARTNERS
Working as a fiscal sponsor for many different projects that directly impact our rural communities
would not be possible with out help from other groups, agencies and community organizations.
CEKC values all the tremendous skills, resources and knowledge they share with us!
If you know of a grant that could help your community, or have a project that supports our mission of strengthening the social and economic well being of local residents, please talk with us! We can provide fiscal sponsorship, training and other resources to help you get your project up and running successfully.
KSC-ABC Asset Building Coalition
Klickitat-Skamania ABC (Asset Building Coalition)
The Klickitat-Skamania Asset Building Coalition works to assist local families and communities in asset building as a way to increase economic prosperity and well-being. This is a direct result of the WSU and Northwest Area Foundation HORIZONS program,
which provided leadership training and development in rural communities
across the Pacific Northwest.
The desired outcomes of the Klickitat-Skamania Asset Building Coalition are to increase prosperity, enhance the quality of life, and strengthen the economic well-being of residents in Klickitat and Skamania Counties.
