The 
Yuma County Library has a dedicated space for nonprofits and grant writers to collaborate, meet, and learn about grant opportunities to better the Yuma community. The library is part of the Yuma Area Nonprofit Institute known as YANPI, a networking group that meets once a month at various locations. The purpose of the group is to serve, support and promote Yuma County’s nonprofits and provide training and networking opportunities.
