Mission
AT COUNTRY FIRST FOUNDATION WE PURSUE A PATH TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ON IMPORTANT CIVIC AND POLICY ISSUES. COUNTRY FIRST FOUNDATION STRIVES TO SUPPORT NONPROFITS THAT ARE WORKING ON PROVEN SOLUTIONS THAT EMPOWER LOCAL COMMUNITIES FROM THE BOTTOM-UP. FOR TOO LONG, MANY HAVE LOOKED TO WASHINGTON, DC TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS FACING RURAL, EXURBAN, SUBURBAN, AND URBAN AMERICA. REAL CHANGE OFTEN TAKES PLACE CLOSEST TO THE PEOPLE AT THE LOCAL LEVEL. COUNTRY FIRST FOUNDATION WILL WORK TO EDUCATE CITIZENS ON STRENGTHENING OUR DEMOCRATIC INSTITUTIONS AND LOOK TO INVEST IN NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS THAT SEEK TO IMPLEMENT PROVEN SOLUTIONS WITH A LASTING IMPACT FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
