Reaching Out to Local Communities!
The Windstar Connection Program
is a regional grassroots outreach program of the Windstar
Foundation. Each Windstar Connection is an individual non-profit
corporation whose mission is to inspire individuals in their
local areas to make responsible choices and take direct personal
actions to achieve a peaceful and environmentally sustainable
future.
The Windstar Connections Program
was founded out of the inspiration of the 1988 Windstar Choices
for the Future Symposium. Connections create a focused opportunity
for individuals around the world to act together for a common
goal.
Windstar Connections meet, network,
and carry out projects and forums of an action-oriented, educational
nature. Fundamental goals include raising environmental awareness
around the world and developing leadership potential in all
people, so that we can be more involved, informed responsible
citizens.
In 1994, the Windstar Connection
program adopted the following vision statement: "Windstar
Connections inspire, model and teach responsibility for a
sustainable future."
Connection groups are organized
and developed by individuals to work at the local level, in
alignment with the Windstar Foundation, on issues of global
importance.
