Megan, representing the East Kern County Community Foundation in Boron, briefed the Ridgecrest City Council on Nov. 5 about a capacity‑building initiative that offers free weekly grant‑writing classes and workshops via Zoom and YouTube to help small nonprofits in eastern Kern County pursue larger grants.
Megan told the council the Foundation aims to “train grant writers… to place throughout other organizations” so small community groups can partner for larger funding opportunities. The Foundation will hold regular workshops (weekly on Monday nights at 6 p.m.) and staff said the sessions are recorded for community access. Council members thanked the presenter and asked staff to collect and share the event link with council and interested parties.
Ending
Council accepted the presentation and requested that the Foundation provide meeting dates and a link so staff can distribute the invitation.
