The Almanor Foundation has launched the Jerry and Yvonne Care Education Fund to provide financial support for educational, artistic, and professional ventures. The fund aims to enrich learning opportunities for students of all ages, foster innovation, ensure equal access to education, and empower communities across Plumas County.
To effectively coordinate efforts, the Funding Board has undertaken a comprehensive data collection effort, reaching out to various sectors to assess the needs of communities, schools, teachers, and students. As part of this effort, local businesses are invited to participate in a brief survey that can be accessed at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SB6FJGP.
The survey asks industry and business leaders for their insights into the employable skills and training that are most important for youth and young adults in the region. The feedback collected will help develop programs aimed at promoting economic growth and prosperity within local communities.
Data from the survey guides the strategic direction of the Education Fund's efforts and supports funding applications to relevant institutions. The survey is expected to take approximately seven minutes to complete, and Almanar Foundation will ensure that all respondents' personal data remains confidential.
