Arctic Outlook is an effort to unify and inform the wide array of water management and wastewater management organizations and professionals within the North Star Borough. As fresh water becomes an increasingly critical resource, coordination and 'community memory' of water management resources and best practices becomes correspondingly valuable.

Solarize BRITE logo

Poised on the front lines of climate change in the arctic, Alaska is no stranger to its impacts. As the climate crisis escalates, so does the need for urgent action. Our local communities are all experiencing hardships caused by a changing climate. We want all Alaskans to have safe homes and strong businesses/organizations that serve their needs in the face of extreme weather brought on by climate change.

WallBusters Advocate for Systems Change to remove barriers to Independence for People with Disabilities.

Our mission is to educate and advocate for the removal of barriers to independence for people with disabilities Education is important because a person without a disability may not understand what barriers exist and how those barriers may prevent some people from living independent and successful lives. We also advocate for the rights of people with a disability because it is our social responsibility to ensure that a person with a disability is able to access the same social benefits as any other member of our community.

Stars Of Gold Readers (SOGR) works to remove barriers, expand opportunities, and assist families and school staff members in supporting strong literacy success. Providing books and activities which affirm all identities and reflect the diversity of our global society increases the likelihood of life-long readers. Children are more likely to engage with books when they see themselves reflected on the page. Stars of Gold Readers is reviewing and purchasing books that will help children see themselves and others in a positive way.  

Our goal is to develop an anti-bias toolkit for family workshops and classes for educators to use with children. Titles will include the themes of Alaska Native/American Indian, African American, LGBTQ+, Disabilities, and Under-Represented People and Families.  

Your support to purchase these materials and make them available to the community is appreciated! You can provide that support by submitting a donation through our donation page.

Fairbanks Skateboard CoalitionFairbanks Skate Park Coalition was formed in April 2016 by a group of action sport riders who want to create safe, fun skate parks in the Fairbanks North Star Borough. Since that time, they have gained non-profit status, assisted in designing and refurbishing the North Pole Skate Park and then hosted a grand opening and competition. They have since started working with the North Star Borough and Parks and Recreation department to upgrade and expand the aging John Weaver Memorial Skatepark.
