With the start of #GiveBigGV only 3 days out, we hope you are thinking about all of the amazing non-profits this valley has to offer! In case you haven't had time yet to research some, here are a few organizations we work closely with.

Royal Family kids camp Montana  has uniquely designed camps and mentoring clubs to serve children who have been abused, abandoned, and neglected. This amazing camp fosters resiliency, self-esteem, hope and positive memories for kids who may not have people in their lives to regularly help with these needs. We are consistently blown away at the impact of this organization!

Hopa Mountain invests in rural and tribal citizen leaders who are improving education, ecological health, and economic development. With over TEN different programs, Hopa Mountain is making a difference for the communities in the Northern Rockies. Their Scholars of Promise, Local Food for Local Families, and Strengthening the Circle are only a few of the programs they offer that impact our community in a large way!

One Valley Community Foundation is the reason we are even making this post! They are the organizers of Give Big and so much more. They take a holistic approach to recognizing and addressing the needs in our valley. Their mission is to connect people who care to causes that matter to ensure that all can thrive in Gallatin County, and they truly do live out this mission! The Gallatin Valley and the non-profits in it would not be the same without One Valley!

@familyoutreachinc  is a home visiting program that focuses on intensive education and support services. They serve both children and adults who have intellectual disabilities or developmental delays and are able to focus on specific needs of both individuals and their families. The impact that Family Outreach makes on our community is huge and we are so grateful they are here!

Thrive provides Gallatin Valley Families with the resources, tools, and support they need to raise healthy, successful children. They have 4️⃣ amazing signature programs - Child Advancement Project (CAP), Partnership Project, Parent Place, and Parent Liaison. Make sure to read more about Thrive and the programs they offer!

Today is Blue Sunday, a day when faith communities across the Nation are offering up prayers for foster children, their families, and those caring for them.  If you are so inclined, please join in this time of reflection and prayer for some of the most vulnerable in our community. 

Pray they are rescued...
Pray they can be placed in safe, loving homes...
Pray they remain with siblings...
Pray they can heal...
Pray for those striving to protect and rescue them...
Pray that their parents seek healing and restoration...
Pray for their caretakers...

Since 2000, CASA/GAL of Gallatin County has trained 355 community members to serve as a Court Appointed Special Advocate aka Guardian ad Litem. These volunteers step up to make a significant impact in the life of vulnerable children and their families. In the words of one of our teens, “She always made sure I was intact and sane. She helped me thru my darkest times and picked up the fallen pieces when I couldn’t pick them up myself. She has always been there, just a call away. She helped me not go down the path my family has always been known for. I don’t feel alone because of her.” Your support provides funds needed to continue the work of giving a voice to foster children in the court system. Thank you for considering us when making your donation decisions on May 2nd and 3rd during Give Big Gallatin Valley 2024! givebiggv.org #GiveBigGV

With #GiveBigGV just around the corner, we wanted to take a moment to shout out some of the other amazing nonprofits we work closely with. 
🌟 @greaterimpactinc has many different programs to try and make their impact on the community. Not only do they have FOUR sober living homes, but they also have a firewood, auto, and a homeschooling program. 

🌟 @bigskyyouthempowerment is one of the teen-focused nonprofits in the valley that is near and dear to our hearts. They hold weekly workshops, mentoring, adventures, and most importantly...GROWTH! BYEP works hard to help the youth in the community experience adventures that might otherwise be out of reach and they do it all at no coast at all to the teen participants.

🌟 @bozeman_hrdc is all about building a better community and helping people thrive.  Most people know them through the Streamline Bus or The Fork & Spoon, but they offer a wide range of other services. Anywhere from housing, energy, or emergency assistance to early childhood and emerging adults to food and nutrition. They are usually our first call when a family needs guidance!
 🌟 @cccmontana offers critical support to families and early childhood professionals in the valley. They are constantly striving to improve the quality of and access to childcare in our community. Whether they are offering a grant to a family, training to a professional, or education to the public, we know that their first thought is always how it will affect the child!
🌟 @familypromisegv is consistently addressing family homelessness in our community. They provide prevention services before families reach a crisis situation, shelter and case management when needed, and then move them into a stabilization program once they secure housing. Our valley and many families in it, would not be the same without the support of this nonprofit!

While you are considering who to donate to, please keep us in mind and these five amazing organizations!

It is important to have a loving, nurturing bond with children at all stages of their lives. One way to help build those bonds, is through small acts of service! You can incorporate things into your daily routine, such as starting every morning with a hug, making their favorite breakfast, getting a gas station treat every Friday, etc. 

Comment below with one thing you can do each day to make your child feel loved!

🌟Volunteer Spotlight🌟

We are so excited to spotlight Kath as one of our amazing advocates! 

Kath found CASA/GAL from an ad in the @bozchron and wanted to help children and families in need. She has a true passion for travel and feels that it helps her understand and connect with people better. Kath is a rockstar advocate and is always looking for ways to grow and improve with her advocacy. When asked, “what about the CASA/GAL mission excites you?” Kath excitedly answered, “The opportunity to change someone’s life from downward to upward. Not just the child, but the whole family.”

We would not be the same without volunteers like Kath. Thank you Kath for all you do for our community!
