The Higher Ground gravel ride will return to Johnstown on November 2. The Pennsylvania Environmental Council is partnering with race coordinators Dave Pryor and Michael Cook, with support from the Community Foundation of the Alleghenies. This year's event will take riders through some of the most scenic and historic parts of the Laurel Highlands, such as the Path of the Flood Trail (this year's Pennsylvania Trail of the Year), the Conemaugh Valley, and much more. Higher Ground is part of a growing gravel cycling scene in Pennsylvania, which is showcasing the value of public lands and activating rural economies. PEC believes that the more opportunities people have to connect with the outdoors, the more likely they are to protect and steward those places for generations to come.

In the latest episode of 'The Valley Today,' host Janet Michael engaged in an enlightening conversation with the Community Foundation of Northern Shenandoah Valley (CFNSV). Janet was joined by the CFNSV's executive director, Nancy Baker, and Erik Beatley, the board chair, who shed light on the foundation's crucial role in the community and their efforts to bolster local nonprofits. Eric began by providing an overview of the Community Foundation's mission. Established 20 years ago, the CFNSV functions as a long-term savings account for both nonprofits and donors. With nearly $17 million in invested funds, managed by Mason Investments, even small nonprofits can benefit from significant investment opportunities and reduced fees by pooling their resources with CFNSV. Janet expressed the utility of the Community Foundation's service, highlighting how it simplifies charitable giving while ensuring donors' legacies are preserved and effectively managed. Erik added that the foundation reduces administrative burdens for donors by consolidating tax documentation and offering an easy-to-use online portal. Nancy, with her extensive experience in the nonprofit sector, emphasized her commitment to being a bridge between philanthropists and nonprofits. By identifying and addressing the immediate and long-term needs of local nonprofits, she thrives on making meaningful connections that lead to sustainable growth. She illustrated this with a story about helping nonprofits address transportation needs by matching them with donors interested in specific causes. Janet and Nancy also touched upon the grant application process. Each year, CFNSV offers training for nonprofits to navigate their grant portal, which opens in April. This system allows nonprofits to apply once to be considered for multiple grants, connecting them with donors whose interests align with their mission. This streamlined approach has proven immensely beneficial for smaller nonprofits without extensive development teams. Erik revealed exciting plans for a potential scholarship portal, which would simplify the application process for students by providing a one-stop shop for multiple scholarship opportunities. The new system aims to increase the number of applicants and streamline the selection process for decision-makers, ultimately benefiting the Shenandoah Valley's student community. Highlighting their innovation, Erik shared the success story of the 'Coats for Kids' initiative. Launched 13 years ago in partnership with the Rotary Club of Winchester, this program has grown from distributing 250 coats to over 1,000 annually. The distribution partners ensure the coats reach those in need, exemplifying the Community Foundation's impact on the ground. With an endowment fund goal of $600,000, the initiative aims to become self-sustaining and serve future generations. The episode concluded with Nancy encouraging listeners interested in contributing to funds like 'Coats for Kids' or starting their own philanthropic ventures to visit the CFNSV website: https://cfnsv.org/  Erik and Nancy reiterated their commitment to partnering with donors and nonprofits to ensure lasting community impact. They expressed their willingness to assist anyone interested in legacy giving or community support.

This episode of Philanthropy Speaks marks the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination based on disability. Host Lynn Williams, Director of Equity & Community Engagement, sits down with Jessica Dixon, Community Advocacy and Peer Specialist at the Disability Network, for a conversation about the disability experience, ableism, intersectionality, and inclusion. Jessica discusses how the Disability Network supports and empowers people with disabilities to live independently in Genesee County, and how the team ensures that people with disabilities have a seat at the table for systems-level conversations. Jessica also shares how her own lived experience, including both visible and non-apparent disabilities, has shaped their work. With humor and heart, Jessica invites listeners to rethink assumptions, center the voices of people with disabilities, and move from pity to partnership.Listen to this episode to understand how "the disability experience is the human experience," and what it means to build a world where everyone can thrive. If you'd like to learn more about the Disability Network, visit disnetwork.org.

Hi everyone! In today's segment, we explore the New Moon in Sidereal Cancer and Mercury Retrograde in the same sensitive and emotional sign. The sign of Cancer is a reminder to soften, nourish, and to come home - within or literally. We also discuss how Mercury retrograde invites us to revisit the past, address loose ends, and do a little "emotional housekeeping." It's a fantastic time to deep clean your space, clear out old items, or even repair things associated with the the mother — whether it's your relationship with your mother, your inner caretaker, or the physical home itself.The New Moon in Cancer is an opportunity to evaluate where we feel safe, and more importantly, where we don't. What energies are we allowing into our emotional space that may not truly support or protect us? We explore these concepts throughout the segment and also discuss other astrological ongoings.

Every city has a family who shapes it. New York City had the Rockefellers. St. Louis had the Bushes. Boston had the Kennedys. Nashville has the Bone family. They are attorneys by trade but political powerhouses and real estate tycoons in practice. In this episode of Climbing the Charts, Angie Lawless and Brandon Miller sit down with Charles Robert Bone. The Nashville Post called the attorney turned developer “one of the most recognizable figures in Nashville's legal, political and development circles.” His resume defends that descriptor. Before joining Southwest Value Partners as Managing Director of Real Estate Investment, Bone was the President and CEO of Bone McAllester Norton, a prominent Nashville law firm. He is also the founder of Phoenix Boats, a bass boat manufacturer based in Winchester, TN, the Southern Steak & Oyster, a beloved restaurant in SoBro, and Acme Feed & Seed, a popular, multi-level restaurant, bar, and event space located on Lower Broadway. Bone has served on several boards, including: The Community Foundation of Middle TN, the Oasis Center, and Hands On Nashville. Most recently, Bone has taken on a key role in one of the most transformative projects in Nashville's modern history—Nashville Yards. The massive mixed-use development is redefining the city's skyline and economic future, blending innovation, entertainment, and urban vibrancy in the heart of downtown. The Nashville Democrat has also worked on local, state, and federal campaigns including, but not limited to: former Mayor Karl Dean's gubernatorial race, Harold Ford's 2006 Senate race, and both of former President Barack Obama's campaigns.
