Why a Capital Campaign?

Over the last five years, Owen County’s children and youth have received tremendous opportunities as the result of efforts funded through grants focused on substance abuse prevention and mental health services. As a result of these opportunities, fewer students report they have tried alcohol and drugs; more students report their mental health needs are being met; academic performances have improved; and the individuals, agencies and churches working to provide these services are working more collaboratively to increase efficiency and effectiveness of available resources.

Unfortunately, as is the case with all grants, the funding cycle for these grants is nearing the end. But because of the impacts that have been made, community leaders wish to continue the programs and services that have been started with these grant dollars. We believe that the importance of these efforts is so great that we are willing to make personal sacrifices to support the efforts as well as ask our friends to join us in this work.

None of us can change our community alone, but by working together to address the causes that lead to substance abuse and mental health issues and the consequences that result from their use, our collaborative efforts can transform the lives in our community and bring hope for the future.
