Nonprofit Support
Nonprofit Roundtable
A forum to promote, strengthen and advance the influence and effectiveness of Tehama County nonprofit agencies. Meeting monthly, approximately 35 agencies exchange ideas, discuss challenges and work to develop solutions to problems experienced by their charitable organizations. Common topics include: fundraising assistance, grant writing, volunteers, community outreach and data collection. Each year local nonprofits work together to staff a booth at the Tehama District Fair.
Participation in Community Events
Working with members of the Nonprofit Roundtable, activities are frequently held in support of community events. Examples include the Children’s Christmas Fair, Community Health Fair, Spookarama, Latino Outreach Health Fair, Greenville Health Fair, and Live Inspired For Tomorrow (LIFT.) For each of these events, youth activities are provided. As a member of the Red Bluff, Corning and Los Molinos Chambers of Commerce we participate in their various events.
For the Childrens Christmas Festival, Cornerstone Community Bank funded 250 volcano kits from Tehama County Resource Conservation District which were assembled by Tehama Together volunteers The following year Tehama Together funded weather kits from the Resource Conservation District. For the past five years we have provided five pound bags of mandarins to each family. These were purchased from Walmart and Whiteley Ranch.

Over the past months volunteers have developed a tentative three-year plan and started to raise more awareness and participation through facebook photo contests, dog play days and parade entries.
We are actively seeking volunteers to review this plan to ensure that it best meets the expectations of dog owners and the community.
