Love Where You Live community Empowerment Initiative

Why are we doing this?
To provide communities in Reno County (and the county as a whole) with data and a process, so they can prioritize and plan for a great future.

Starting with Data
In our experience and conversations with experts on community building, we’ve learned that collecting information about resident perceptions and priorities is a critical first step in creating a strong future for a community. Many community leaders in Reno County have been asking for benchmarking data, so we’re creating a process for them to do so (cost-free!).

Prioritize and Plan
Once we have the data and benchmarks, we see an opportunity to bring residents together to …

• Build relationships within and across communities
• Identify common priorities and coordinate efforts within each community and across the county to create bigger/better solutions by working together
• Launch projects to address community priorities

Importantly, this process will help Hutch CF understand how to leverage the Fund for Reno County, outside funding sources, and donor passions to accelerate progress within communities and across the county

The Process

In short, the Love Where You Live initiative involves a simple process:

1. Survey (June-Aug) — Residents take a short survey via online link or paper copy.
2. Gather (Sept-Nov) — We’ll host gatherings in each community for residents to discuss the results, prioritize needs, and brainstorm community projects.
3. Grants (Dec-Feb) – Project teams apply for grants from Hutch CF.
4. Your community makes progress, and we repeat this process again in 2025 and 2026.
