Membership engagement allows Strong Towns Blono to function. We invite you, a member, to submit your own initiative that you would like to lead. We will take a supporting role in this endeavor, providing you with publicity, volunteers, and possible funding (if needed and if resources allow). Initiatives must align with our values and goals. Please consult blog posts and our story on our website for more information on what that looks like.
An example initiative would be a clothing repair event, where one would sew/mend clothing from people in the community free of charge. The member who proposed this initiative would be in charge of organizing it, and we would help publicize, provide volunteer, and possibly fund the materials cost if resources allow.
After submission, you will be contacted to revise your plan, move forward with workshopping. We do reserve the right to reject initiatives as well. Once an initiative moves on to the workshopping phase, a committee will work with you to hammer out exactly what your initiative will look like and ensuring it aligns with organizational goals. Once the initiative has been finalized, it is go time!
