Business Connections
The Chamber’s August Membership Program will feature a presentation by Christopher Nanni President and CEO of the Community Foundation of Greater Birmingham, which is the oldest and largest community foundation in Alabama. Founded in 1959, the Community Foundation is a permanent charitable endowment that serves five area counties including our own Shelby County. The Foundation awards grants to non-profit organizations throughout the area from donor-advised funds as well
as through a competitive grant process. Through grant-making, convening and leading, the Community Foundation works in partnership with donors, non-profits and communities
to improve the life of the region. The Membership Program, sponsored by The UPS Store, Caldwell Mill/ Valleydale in Hoover, will be held on August 27 at the Pelham Civic Complex and Ice Arena. Doors open at 11:00AM for business networking and program will begin promptly at 11:30AM. The investment is $20 per person for Chamber members and $30 per person for “Future” members. In addition, NonProfit and Community organizations are invited
to participate by having a Showcase Table during the event. There is no fee for the Showcase Table, but participants are expected to remain through the luncheon program. For more information, or to make a reservation, please contact the Chamber by telephone at 663-4542 or register on-line at www. shelbychamber.org.
