Our approach
Because we have first-hand experience in rural America, we understand not just your needs but also your way of life. We know the value of living in rural places and are here to provide solutions that fit your community. As a fractional service provider, we’re more than just consultants–we’re part of your team. And as a social enterprise, we donate 10% of our profits to the communities we serve.
“Rural Pathways played a crucial role in helping us secure a $20,000 grant from Essentia Health. Their dedication and strategic approach strengthened our application and helped us clearly convey our vision to the committee. Thanks to their support, we can now better serve families in Floodwood and nearby communities with much-needed childcare services. This funding is a significant step forward in our mission, and we are deeply grateful for Rural Pathways' professionalism and care. Partnering with them has been a pleasure, and we highly recommend Rural Pathways as a grant writing and fundraising partner.”
