RCF Connects impacts these five areas through the three C’s of Community Building: Coach, Connect, Contribute.

Our Five Pillars

Restoring Neighborhoods

Creating capital investments in a neighborhood changes the physical environment from one of neglect to one of strength.

Health

Access to health care, nutritious foods and healthy environments improves the lives of individuals and communities.

Community Growth

Increasing Wealth and stimulating the local economy improves the livelihood of individuals, families and entire communities.

Quality Education

Access to quality education (instruction and facilities) is a defining characteristic of a sustainable community.

Public Safety

Sound design, safe walkways and supervised playing fields are just some elements that help increase public safety and wellbeing.
