From the desk of Harvest Foundation President Kate Keller
In times of uncertainty and change, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. The world around us is constantly evolving, and the challenges we face — both new and ongoing — can seem insurmountable. But we want to take a moment to remind you of something important: Your work matters more than ever. And as your trusted partner, we are here to walk alongside you as you continue to fulfill your mission.
With a change in administration, change is inevitable. These times may feel uncertain or unsettling, but we urge you to stay calm, stay focused, and remember the impact you are making every day. The needs of our community are profound, and as local organizations, you are the heart and soul of the response. While external circumstances may shift and evolve, your commitment to those you serve is a constant — one that provides the stability our neighbors desperately need.
We’re In This Together
At Harvest, we understand the pressures and challenges that come with navigating an ever-changing landscape. We have faced them before (remember COVID-19), but we want to reassure you that we remain unwavering in our support. Our commitment to the vital work you do is steadfast. While we, too, are adjusting to the changes, our mission remains clear: to be a reliable, supportive partner in addressing the pressing needs of our community.
You can continue to count on us as we all navigate this time of change. Whether it’s through continued funding, technical assistance, or simply being a sounding board for your concerns, we are here.
Together, we can rise to meet these challenges, just as we’ve done before.
