Rural Action's community development work is broad because it is inclusive. We maintain working relations with more than 100 agencies, businesses and organizations. They are our advisors, mentors, funders, corporate supporters, and, often, our good friends.

Some help us publish our Newsletter. Others donate needed equipment. Many more offer technical advice and specialized support in fields ranging from environmental clean-up to agricultural marketing. Together, they deserve a great deal of credit for the successes of this last year. We thank them for their support.

This year (2000), we awarded our annual Sustainable Livelihood Award to Casa Nueva and our Business Partner Award to The Hocking Valley Bank.
