Members should have received a Paperless Post invitation for this exciting virtual event at which we will choose the non-profit that will receive our $90,000 grant.  In case you did not receive the invitation, here is the link: https://pp.events/avb6dx7v . 

 Two finalists will make a presentation that evening after which we will vote.  You will be entered into a raffle if you register and bring a guest;  and another raffle if you join for 2021 in advance of that night or make a commitment that night to join for 2021.  Enter to win exciting prizes, and don’t forget to vote. 
 
If you are unable to attend the event, no worries.  Every member will receive the information on the finalists ahead of the November 12 event.  Instructions for how to vote absentee will be included with the packet of information.  If you intend to attend the November 12 event, please hold on your vote until that night.
 
Plan to pay your 2021 membership fees before the November 12 to qualify for a drawing that night.  You can pay online at https://nashville.impact100council.org/membership

We need your help
 
There are three ways you can help Impact Nashville continue to grow its IMPACT in the greater Nashville area:
  • We are about to open membership for the 2021 year. Help us gain new members from your network.  Invite a guest to the November 12 Voting Event (and be entered into a raffle).  If you have a group of people you’d like to introduce to Impact100, a board member is happy to conduct a virtual presentation to your group.  Just let us know at info@nashville.impact100council.org
 
  • Invite the company you work for to support Impact100 by becoming a sponsor.  A sponsorship anywhere from $500 up to $5000 will help Impact100 conduct its business in 2021 and reach even more people.  If you want help making the pitch to your company, please contact janet@deltablvd.com
 
  • If you work for a company that supports women’s initiatives, we’d love to partner with you to deliver a presentation to the women of your company about Impact100 and the way we support the diverse Nashville community.
Please join the Impact100 Nashville private Facebook page for all the latest updates and announcements.
