OneAthens Foundation

The Co-conveners and Steering Committee will create OneAthens as the successor organization that will provide leadership from the community to ensure the implementation of these initiatives and other remaining PPA recommendations.

This initiative will help reduce poverty because it will provide an organization to oversee the accountability and implementation of the PPA recommendations.

Create a community foundation by January 2008.

The focus of this initiative is to provide Athenians with a philanthropic vehicle to help improve quality of life and the economic well-being for all members of our community. This initiative will reduce poverty by providing resources and strategic giving to fill funding gaps and seed new models.
