You’re invited!
You are invited to a learning opportunity hosted by the Union Block Funders (Black Hawk County Gaming Association, McElroy Trust, Otto Schoitz Foundation and the Waterloo Community Foundation). There are exciting things happening in our community, and together we face challenges. So, we are facilitating a learning series and conversation on community. What is the story we tell about the great things happening in our community? And how do we come together to overcome the challenges? We’d like you to be part of the conversation! We will provide background information as a guide and invite experts to share their ideas.
