Copper Shores 2023 year in review video
December 29, 2023 | By Emilie Jacques
Copper Shores Community Health Foundation underwent a radical transformation in 2023, joining three historic local nonprofits together and rebranding into one. The main goal of the merger is to fill service gaps in the community by strengthening and expanding the programs Copper Shores offers.
This year Copper Shores had many grants, scholarships, fundraisers and community events focused on improving the health of the Copper Country. Services have been expanded for victims, student outreach has been able to continue across the Copper Country, seniors are receiving healthier and more fresh food, and opportunities for people to break out of poverty have promising early results.
Enjoy this video and check out some of the amazing projects we helped with this year. People all over the Copper Country are hard at work making it a better place for everyone to live, and Copper Shores is grateful for the chance to help them get their ideas off the ground.
Thank you to Mark Riutta, owner and videographer of Defined Visuals. Riutta has been working with Copper Shores all year to capture the exciting moments and success stories. He has a talent for making it possible to relive the magic moments over and over through video, especially this one.
