Today is #GivingTuesday ! You can give your community the gift of a lifetime by supporting the projects that help support Powell's economy.

The Powell Economic Partnership is Powell's economic development nonprofit. We work on bringing projects to life that will increase jobs, support current workers, and make Powell a more profitable place. However, we can't complete our goals without help from generous donors like you.

We are currently gathering funds for our outdoor recreation and agricultural areas. We have the Rails With Trail project that will build a safe, accessible non-motorized walking trail for Powell residents that will connect with the Great American Rail Trail system being built across the country. We also have the food co-op that will connect producers to buyers such as hospitals and schools, increase education and food safety regulations, and provide healthy meals to our most vulnerable citizens.

For more information or to donate, please contact or visit the Powell Visitor's Center!
Address: 111 S Day St, Powell, WY 82435

Give future generations the gift of a lifetime by supporting the Powell Economic Partnership's projects this #GivingTuesday!

Around 66% of high school graduates move out of Wyoming. This means that a majority of our children and future workforce build their lives away from home. However, the Powell Economic Partnership is already working on making Powell a more exciting place for our next generation to stay. We have several projects planned with the intent to support youth interests.

The planned food co-op is teaching farmers and producers how to prepare food safely for buyers such as schools, which would give our children healthy, nutritious meals at lunch. Farm-to-school programs would foster an interest in agriculture for students, making them more likely to go into that field in the future.

The Rails With Trails project would connect a safe, accessible walking trail across the country, putting Powell on the map as an excellent spot for outdoor recreation. With a spot so close to home, young people would not need to travel far to enjoy all of the beauty that Powell has to offer.

If you want to help keep our children at home, donate this Giving Tuesday to one of our projects! The Powell Visitor's Center is always open to accepting donations by mail or walk-in!

When the years pass, are you certain that your hard work will be preserved for future generations?

Every day, more and more agricultural land is being sold off and farms are becoming smaller and smaller. Powell's economy is at risk if we allow our farmers to lose everything they worked generations for.

The Powell Economic Partnership is working to prevent this catastrophe from happening. With a food co-op, not only will farmers be able to diversify their income, but they will have the opportunity to network with other producers, share resources, find new industry buyers, and more. However, the construction of this co-op and the support of our producers can only happen with YOUR HELP!

On this upcoming #GivingTuesday on December 2nd, give a gift to support our economy and our producers. You can drop off or mail your cash or check tax deductible donation to the Powell Visitor's Center to be collected for the food co-op - just make sure to tell us which project it is going towards! Even $5 will make a difference in helping to support our producers and everything they do to help our town!

The Powell Economic Partnership has two ongoing projects that support keeping land agriculutral. The Agricultural Tipping Point Study will help to survey how land sales affect the economy, and the food co-op is intended to support producers by helping network and connecting them to industry buyers like schools and hospitals.
