After careful thought and consideration we’ve decided to take the plunge and transition Miss Angie’s Place to a nonprofit organization. There are many steps to this process and it is overwhelming to say the least, but the initial phase is complete – we’ve created a solid mission statement and set of goals that will serve us well into the future.

The next step is recruiting members for the board of directors. Don’t get me wrong, serving on a board can be overwhelming, but it can also be extremely rewarding. Please take a look at the mission statement and goals below. If you feel a calling to help with this mission by serving as a member on the board of directors, feel free to message Miss Angie below.

Mission Statement

Our Mission: Create a safe space to gather and grow for people of all ages through art, nature, spirituality and movement.

Goals

1. Foster a sense of appreciation and stewardship for mother earth.
2. Offer affordable programming for all.
3. Serve as a welcome presence in our community through diverse and inclusive programming and events.
4. Be financially sustainable.
5. Bridge the generational gap by establishing a mentorship program involving adults and youth, based on areas of concern/need for guidance.
6. Promote mental, physical and emotional wellness for participants through programming and positive interactions amongst staff, volunteers and participants.

Yes! I’m interested in discussing board membership.

Say goodbye to the restriction and food rules of diet culture and get back to the joy of eating. Join Tracy as she introduces Intuitive Eating, a self-care eating framework that takes you on a journey of curiosity and discovery to help you reconnect with the inner wisdom you were born with. Research shows that intuitive eaters have higher self-esteem, variety of foods eaten, pleasure from eating, life satisfaction and HDL cholesterol. Intuitive eaters have also been shown to have lower triglycerides, blood pressure, binge eating and emotional eating. Heal your relationship with food, mind and body and reclaim your life.

When: Saturday, Oct 16th, 9am-11:30am (9-10am: Walk led by Miss Angie, 10-11:30am Presentation on Intuitive Eating by Tracy) Optional lunch at 11:30am.

Who: Anyone ages 16+

Cost: $35/person

Good Morning Friends,

Miss Angie here…I just had a conversation with a lovely neighbor and the all-to-often question came up…”So what do you actually DO at Miss Angie’s Place? What’s it all about?”

After sharing with our neighbor the mission of Miss Angie’s Place and the current/future programming we do and will provide, the all-to-common comment came up…”That sounds like a non-profit!”

Hence the conundrum. What we DO here and what our MISSION statement focuses on are both very non-profit. However, after speaking with a few experts in the world of non-profits, a charitable entity is just not the right fit at this time.

Therefore, good friends of Miss Angie’s, I ask of you two things…
1) Please take a good look at our website; what we stand for, what we provide, what we hope to provide, and how we are making an impact in the Pine Island and surrounding communities.

2) Please send my way any ideas of charitable organizations you think may be a good fit as a Fiscal Sponsor for Miss Angie’s Place. For more information on fiscal sponsorship and what it’s all about, please visit this website:

Thanks so much for your time. Have a wonderful weekend,
