Brand New Insights

For the first time, we’re sharing comparative data on how philanthropy shows up, or doesn’t, for rural Appalachia.

With this one of a kind and never before gathered information, we clearly show just how stark the disparities are. Not just between urban and rural America, but between rural Appalachia and the rest of the country. Building on the groundwork laid by As the South Grows, this research represents the first dataset of its kind focused specifically on our region.

We hope This becomes a valuable tool for funders, community leaders, and advocates to better understand the gaps and opportunities in resourcing our communities.
