Invest in rural residents building their future

Dear Friend of the Tribune,

Since we joined GlobalGiving in 2018, we have raised $9,946 for the Tribune Building Project. As a contributor to this campaign, you play a critical role in advocating for community-led decision-making as the way to achieve competitive and sustainable growth in rural America’s small-town economies. Thank you for your ongoing support!

We’re pleased to share our ongoing progress toward achieving the goals needed to make the Tribune project a reality:

• In early October, the project took another step forward with the announcement of our newly formed Tribune Building Steering Committee. The Tribune Steering Committee is comprised of national, regional, and local leaders across diverse industries that are advising the redevelopment of Tribune. The Steering Committee will guide strategy and lead the advocacy and outreach necessary to develop and realize the project. The Committee is expected to convene soon to work towards achieving their goals. A forthcoming Resident Advisory Committee of local advisers representing multiple perspectives and experiences will work in tandem with the Steering Committee to ensure the community’s ongoing participation in Tribune’s success.
• Ongoing work with our partner, UW Stevens Point, to advance the second floor “Partnership for Sustainability” including programming and the operating model. Additional prospective partner conversations continue as well.   

In 2020, your continued support is critical to realizing the Tribune’s success, as it will foster economic growth and innovation for generations to come. Contributions of all sizes and types matter. Join us in sharing our Tribune GlobalGiving page with friends and family and make them part of this important work.
