Plenitud's mission is to serve and inspire individuals and communities by sharing knowledge that leads to a more sustainable and harmonious life

The proposed vista project, growing the impact: expanding community economic development, aligns with the cncs priority programming area of economic opportunity due to plenitud's focus on fostering resilient community development in fundamental systems such as sustainable food production and housing. Plenitud's holistic approach also aligns the project with other cncs priority programming areas; including healthy futures by addressing food insecurity in rural areas; education by providing holistic outdoor educational opportunities for under-resourced schools; and by training communities to prepare and recover from natural disasters. Our vista project seeks to build the capacity of our organization to continue and expand these programs, which will in turn benefit the recipients of all our educational services through workshops, internships, seminars and partnerships with various outreach sites in surrounding communities. Over the course of 3 years, (4) vista members will help build the organization's capacity by updating and managing plenitud's constituent database; creating educational materials; securing grants and other sources of funding; leveraging & engaging community resources; building our educational outreach program capacity; and developing and strengthening youth programs.
