Community Foundation of Snohomish County
We are starting a blog. Why now? One of the reasons is that more people are turning to AI for answers. Many times, those results don’t reflect what Snohomish County donors and nonprofits are sharing with us.
So, we decided blogging is a way to get out relevant, timely information to a larger audience. We will be sharing what donors and nonprofits are saying to us.
Like most things we do, we will be focusing on quality not quantity. We are not promising a blog every month. Instead, we will be posting when an issue, concern or topic seems to be on a lot of people’s minds.
Each blog will have the author if you would like to chat further about the topic. And, of course, if there is something you wish we would weigh in on, just let us know.
