Project details

What we need
  • 1-2 page press release that can be distributed to news outlets
Additional details

Hello! We have a relatively immediate need to help us create and craft a few press releases, and more or less challenge our PR communications process as we move to the next stage of growth.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a basic framework, and all the details needed., which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a staff mentor to assist, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,348 , allowing us to take the time we need to make more formal decisions about the right communications staffing moving forward.

As our foundation grows, we need to quickly communicate our success in "on the ground" projects throughout the country.

Our mission

The Orton Family Foundation seeks to empower people to shape the future of their communities by improving local decision-making, creating a shared sense of belonging, and ultimately strengthening the social, cultural, and economic vibrancy of each place.

What we do

The Orton Family Foundation is focused on building stronger, healthier, and more economically vibrant small cities and towns across America. Founded in Vermont in 1995, the foundation devoted more than a decade to working with small towns to develop a community development model that empowers residents to shape the future of their communities. Community Heart & Soul® projects are underway across the country creating positive change that is resident-driven, recognizes the value in the unique character of each place, and the deep emotional connection of the people who live there.

By actively seeking the collective wisdom of all residents, including those whose voices are often missing, Community Heart & Soul brings people together to build stronger, healthier, and more economically vibrant communities. This resident-driven model takes into account both the unique character of a town and the deep emotional connection of the people who live there – a town’s “Heart & Soul®.”

These collective insights into what truly matters most serve to guide the town in making the best decisions about its future. Because the model is resident-driven, Community Heart & Soul builds stronger, healthier, and more vibrant small cities and towns based on what matters most to everyone.
