Young Professionals Network |
|
On Thursday, May 23rd the BNCC Young Professionals Network held its second annual Brunch & Boards event held at the Guthrie Opportunity Center. This event brought community locals face to face with nonprofits so they could learn more about their organizations and how they can get more involved. Not only did the community get to network with the nonprofits, but the nonprofits got to network with each other. This led to nonprofits bouncing ideas off each other and learning more ways they can make themselves more successful and beneficial.
We want to give a big thanks to our sponsor Guthrie Opportunity Center for providing the space for this event and for the delicious food. We also want to thank all of the nonprofits that were able to make it.
