It's an organization that's been in my community for 50 years, yeah. But now me and my ADHD crew are coming in and pushing buttons and making waves because we see how it could be. I can get boots on the ground for my ideas, an organization to support it, and some community recognition with good context attached to it - because we're a nonprofit.
Montana has the largest per capita nonprofit count though, with decent reputations, so maybe we just do it different than you urban folk.
