Executive summary similar to americorps, new hope's mission is "through the love of christ, we build restorative relationships with individuals and families in our community, empowering them to move from crisis to self-sufficiency." the proposed vista project aligns with the healthy futures focus area, specifically in the areas of food security and mental health care. Additionally, the proposed vista project aligns with the education k-12 success focus area. The vista project will seek to build organizational capacity by leveraging resources, resulting in an increased donor base and volunteer base, as well as more effective outcomes for over 700 low-income beneficiaries in prospect park and haledon, NJ. Two vista members will contribute to the goals of the project by performing activities such as creation and maintenance of donor, participant and volunteer databases; reporting on funders; reporting on program outcomes; reporting on community participant volunteers; execution of volunteer training and appreciation events; and recruitment of volunteers. This is the proposal for the first year of a three-year project period.
