The Community Snapshot Project
The Community Snapshot is a new concept.
Using data-driven research, the Washington County Community Foundation looked at our County’s strengths and weaknesses, and then created the Community Snapshot website to profile those needs and opportunities. Go to communityshapshot.org - you can learn about services local non-profits offer or educate yourself about great causes to support. It shows where we are as a county and where we need to go. Check out communitysnapshot.org.
