Nonprofit Roundtable Part 2

The Arc Fox Cities, Inc. – Empowering Youth and Adults with Differing Abilities by using Advocacy, Respect & Concern.  We provide social, recreational, respite and educational services to individuals with developmental disabilities and their families from ages 3 to lifetime.

The Bay-Lakes Council, BSA is the leading youth organization in our service area fostering character development and values-based leadership.  Collaborating with local organizations and working through trained adult mentors, Scouting is fun with a purpose; teaching responsibility, self-reliance, the importance of service to others and develops the leaders of tomorrow.

This mission of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Fox Valley is to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens.

Community Care's mission is to develop and demonstrate innovative, flexible, community-based approaches to care for at-risk adults, in order to optimize their quality of life and optimize the allocation of community resources.

COTS provides temporary transitional shelter for homeless men, women, young adults and single mother families in Outagamie, Winnebago and Calumet counties. Our goal is to respectfully provide homeless individuals a safe and affordable place to live, food, household needs and training on basic living skills enabling them to transition to self-sufficiency and independent living.
 
The Fox Cities Performing Arts Center is a not for profit cultural/educational organization serving the Greater Fox Cities and Northeast Wisconsin.  Signature programs include a distinguished cultural performance series, a daytime education performance series, community outreach/engagement collaborations and a touring Broadway show series.

Greater Fox Cities Area Habitat for Humanity works each year with over 4,000 volunteers and supporters to help 30 to 50 families build homes, repair homes and obtain homes from lenders through credit counseling.  Our vision is a world "Where everyone has a decent place to live." 

Junior Achievement provides in-school and after-school programs for students which focus on three key content areas: entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and work readiness. The goal is to teach concepts through experiential learning, allowing young people to put their new knowledge and skills into practice.

"Doing The Most Good.” In these four words, the mission of the Salvation Army is to feed, to clothe, to comfort, to care. To rebuild broken homes and broken lives. By walking with the addicted, we can lead them to recovery. In fighting hunger and poverty, we can feed and nurture the spirit. And, in living and sharing the Christian Gospel by meeting tangible needs, we give the world a lasting display of the love behind our beliefs.

The Sexual Assault Crisis Center-Fox Cities, Inc. provides personalized C.A.R.E. for victims of sexual assault, their families, friends, and others affected in our community. By offering Counseling, Advocacy, Resources and Education, we inspire change and instill a sense of hope and healing. Together, we can end sexual violence in the Fox Cities.
