The Community Outreach Committee is to serve as a link, bridging the gap between our community events and activities and various groups: Residents, Volunteers, Community Partners, Board of Directors (leadership) and staff.
That outreach effort includes increasing awareness for Los Angeles Community Partners and other non-profit organizations, encouraging active participation of the Community Partners in community events, and to leverage opportunities to connect Los Angeles Community members with them.
Additionally, the Community Outreach Committee will provide ideas and recommendations to the TNF Board of Directors that promote quality relationships with our local Residents and Community Partners with the goal of promoting and maintaining a sense of community spirit and support throughout Los Angeles.
