Ten at the Top

Initiative 3 regional information: through social media as well as the development of a number of regional asset maps, Ten at the Top is focused on connecting individuals across the upstate with available resources. This includes a monthly e-newsletter as well as a strong social media presence.

Initiative 1 - community outreach a key focus of Ten at the Top (tatt) is to build trust and partnerships across the upstate region. One mechanism for achieving that mission is to convene and participate in a wide variety of community outreach programs, meetings and activities. While historically these have been done in-person, due to the pandemic, in 2022 tatts engagements were split between in-person and virtual. Overall, tatt conducted 102 regional engagements in 2022 with 3,358 attendees.

Initiative 2 regional forums, initiatives & task forces: in 2010 and 2011, Ten at the Top led the development of the our upstate vision, which engaged more than 10,000 upstate residents around the question what matters most? As we look toward the future of the upstate. Since 2011, Ten at the Top has supported the efforts of our upstate-sc, which was created to directly oversee the implementation phase of the regional vision while Ten at the Top focuses on community outreach and building regional capacity around key economic development and quality of life issues. A portion of Ten at the Top revenue goes directly to our upstate-sc to support regional task forces, forums, workshops and initiatives.
