Local organizations who partner with the CommUnity Zone have access to all that we offer.
Use of Our Space
We open up our office space to local community organizations to use for meetings, trainings, and access to the public.
We also have a repository of materials and promotional media for local non-profits and organizations. We are currently prepared to deliver information for 53 organizations regarding their events, their mission and vision statements, the services they offer, and their need for volunteers. |
Making Connections
By bringing our partners together, we have been able to facilitate access to critical resources.
For example, the Bucknell Institute for Lifelong Learning was able to provide meeting spaces to the Central Susquehanna Valley Mediation Center (CSVMC) at our suggestion, while the Lewisburg Prison Project and the CSVMC were made a aware of and gained access to CORE Susquehanna in order to hire AmeriCorps Service Members who are invaluable to everyday operations and outreach. |
Cross Promotion
Partners gain access to our continuously growing mailing list of community members and our social media network.
With an exceptional newsletter open rate and exceptional post reach on social media, this can mean the difference between effective/wasteful programming. |

Spotlight Discussion Series

Our office space and equipment are available to community members in need. We have facilitated communication with case managers and made it possible for those lacking a computer and/or transportation to pursue their professional goals. We have also been a safe place for those in need of respite from inclement or extreme weather.

Local inventors, experts, inspired community members, and our partner organizations are invited to share their talents with our neighbors in our Spotlight Discussion Series.
