💛 A Message from the Board of Directors 💛
As the Board of Directors of Next Step Forward Foundation, we want to personally share a message with our community.
After thoughtful discussion and unified agreement, the Board has supported the transition from our previous building location as part of our commitment to the long-term health and sustainability of the foundation and the Blackfoot Downtown Market.
Leadership requires making decisions that protect the mission — even when they are difficult.
We want to reassure our community that:
• The Foundation remains strong
• The Blackfoot Downtown Market remains active
• Our Youth Advisory Board continues its work
• Our programs and partnerships continue
Our focus remains where it has always been — serving youth, building leadership, and creating opportunities in our community.
We are actively working toward securing a new long-term home and strengthening the foundation for future growth.
We are grateful for the support of our volunteers, vendors, families, and community partners during this transition.
This is not an ending.
It is the beginning of a stronger chapter.
With unity and commitment,
The Board of Directors
