DELHI – Area non-profit leaders will connect with business representatives at a networking event hosted by the Delaware County Chamber of Commerce. Speed Networking for a Cause will be held at the Delhi Rehabilitation and Nursing Center on Wednesday, April 17, from 4:00 to 5:30 pm.
According to Chamber president Ray Pucci, many not-for-profit and non-profit organizations are still experiencing the effects of reduced resources--both financial and people--as a result of COVID-19. These groups are essential to our collective community development goals to build stronger, more sustainable, and vibrant communities.
Piucci noted that business representatives can be a terrific source of valuable insight as well as volunteers seeking community service opportunities. These engaged employees can, in turn, enrich the sponsoring company by these experiences while heightening the company's participation in the community.
At this round-robin event, business professionals will have up to two minutes to talk about the types of volunteer experiences that interest them. Non-profit representatives will then have up to two minutes to pitch their organizations.
Following the Speed Networking event, the Chamber's Business After Hours event will run from 5:30 to 6:30 pm.
The event is free to participate, but registration is necessary. More information about both events is available under the Events tab at www.DelawareCounty.org.
