The Center for Sharing has been working in Southeastern Washington for over 25 years. From doing loosely organized local grass roots community development work in Walla Walla during the first decade, to offering a more structured approach through facilitating Servant Leadership development courses beginning  in 1995, we’ve been passionate about the work of building a better society by equipping individuals  to offer their gifts and skills in service of the common good as servant leaders. Since most of society’s goods and services are offered through institutions today rather than between individuals,  we offer our work in a style that nurtures the building of community among participants. We believe that institutions that function as communities are more able to care for those they serve, so that over time,” people grow, become healthier, wiser, freer, more likely to become servants of others themselves” (taken from Robert Greenleaf’s writings), always with an eye on the most vulnerable in society.

Some of the communities and/or organizations that we have worked with specifically around servant leadership development over the years include:

Vista Hermosa, Prescott, Washington

Tierra Vida, Pasco, Washington

Sunnyside Transformation, Sunnyside, Washington

Co-Serve International, Portland, Oregon
