Attend Two NKY Chamber Events in August Highlighting Impact 100

“Growing by Giving Back: The IMPACT of Philanthropy” Breakfast Event

Sign up now for “Growing by Giving Back: The IMPACT of Philanthropy,” a breakfast panel discussion sponsored by the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday, Aug. 27, 7:30 to 10 a.m., at Kenton County Public Library, Erlanger, KY.


You won’t want to miss hearing four dynamic members of Impact 100 – Angel Beets, Clare Blankemeyer (former president), Laura Menge and Tiarra Owens – talk about how their journeys in philanthropy and “giving back” has made a difference in their personal and professional lives. Shelly Deavy, another Impact 100 member, will be moderator for the panel discussion.


Come to network, support your fellow Impact 100 members and hear perspectives on how philanthropy can be a gateway to forging meaningful new connections and networks while helping to create a better future for our community.
