You are invited to join Hopa Mountain and Mountain Sky Guest Ranch to participate in the Montana Backroads Funders Tour, an educational visit with rural citizens leaders on the backroads of Montana.

You will travel through Park, Meagher, Wheatland, and Musselshell counties and learn more about the individuals, nonprofits, and community foundations that are taking innovative steps to improve their hometowns. This is an opportunity to learn more about changes taking place in rural Montana while networking with other Funders who are investing in rural opportunities.

The Funders Tour will start at the Mountain Sky Guest Ranch in Emigrant, Montana, who is hosting us as their guest overnight on May 23. We will travel together by car through rural communities and farming towns, many of which are fairly isolated and impacted by a unique set of agricultural and demographic conditions, which you will have the opportunity to learn more about. 

We have the capacity to add site visits along the way that meet your funding priorities and interests. We look forward to having you join us and appreciate your response by April 1 so we can make this a thoughtful and fulfilling experience.

Please contact Bonnie Sachatello-Sawyer at bsawyer@hopamountain.org for more information and registration.

Philanthropy Northwest would like to thank Hopa Mountain and Mountain Sky Guest Ranch for sharing this opportunity with our network!
