Description


Skip your usual morning grind and join us for this networking event designed to match skilled volunteers with meaningful opportunities to serve local causes. Our espresso bar will fuel your networking prowess while you explore ways to contribute your expertise to nonprofit boards, committees, and special projects.  

September 24 from 8:00 am to 9:00 am at the Trailside Event Center, Peoria Heights

You'll leave with more than just a caffeine high - think new connections, meaningful opportunities, and the satisfaction of knowing your talents are brewing with potential to make a real difference. This is where careers meet causes, and where your morning coffee ritual becomes a catalyst for change.

Our guest speaker, Shari Pash with Strategic Solutions for Growth, will give a short keynote address on the 'Top 10 Questions Every Volunteer and Nonprofit Should Ask Each Other' when starting a new role.
