Our Wealth | Our Future
Jeff Yost, Nebraska Community Foundation

Jeff YostIn the decades ahead, billions of dollars will flow out of central Appalachia, draining resources from already challenged communities. Successful communities will adopt strategies to capture these resources.  Jeff Yost, President of the Nebraska Community Foundation, will share strategies that have made that community foundation a nationally recognized model for community development philanthropy. Jeff’s presentations will be followed by a panel of regional practitioners who are applying innovative ways to promote locally-based philanthropy that can help build a brighter future for your community.
