A TIME OF CHANGE
​Squires was founded in 2012 and has been operating as a successful fiscally sponsored program under the nonprofit Impact NW. In 2022 we developed a steering committee of community partners, volunteers, and participants. It was determined by the committee that it was time to become our own 501(c)3 and make a few other changes.
​
In 2023 the majority of Steering Committee became the Board of Directors and we began the journey. We hired an attorney, became incorporated, and put the board through some training. Then the in early 2024 we obtained our determination making us a 501(c)3 as of 4/21/2023. Additionally, we changed made a small change to our name and a logo change to better tell the community, potential participants, and funders who we are and what we do.
