Seeds of Change: Sunsetting Edge of Amazing
We are so proud of the work we have done together!
While it’s incredibly difficult to say goodbye, we are confident that the connections and partnerships formed through this event will continue to thrive and grow.
Over a decade ago, Edge of Amazing (EOA) served as the launch event for Providence Institute for a Healthier Community (PIHC). Each year, this conference highlighted inspiring stories and strengths of our community. It fostered partnerships focused on community health and well-being, and provided space to bring together people to build, to bridge and to celebrate our collective efforts. A catalyst for PIHC’s vision of healthier people, healthier relationships, healthier communities, created together, EOA played a pivotal role in shaping our collective impact.
THANK YOU!
We are humbled by all the work you all put in alongside us to Edge of Amazing over the last ten years. To say it takes a village is no understatement and we are grateful for each and every one of you for your important partnership. Whether it was collaborating on content input, serving as a speaker, moderating a session, serving on a panel, hosting a resource table, volunteering at the event, sponsoring the event, or putting aside all your work for the day to be present in community with us, we could not have put on Edge of Amazing without you!
