One of the main goals when we first did CFinNC last year and again with NCDevCon this year was to reach out in these difficult economic times and put on a great conference at no charge allowing attendees to get valuable career training at no cost!
Our two chosen charities:
Please consider making a donation while at NCDevCon!
This year we are reaching out again and have partnered with a local organization called 5 Bucks Is Change:
Just what is 5 bucks to most Americans?
A hamburger, a fancy coffee, or a couple gallons of gas? To most of us, $5.00 is just change. But in other parts of the world or in our own neighborhoods, $5.00 can have an impact, especially when combined with other $5.00 donations. Very few of us are millionaires but almost all of us have a desire and the capability to be generous. We also have friends who have similar desires. So let’s put the good intentions together with good friends and have a party! "5 Bucks is Change" is an initiative to combine the idea of having a good time to raise a little money and support "micro-charities”. "5 Bucks is Change" is sponsored by Janet M. Kennedy, a marketing and social media professional in Raleigh, NC. To send comments, suggestions of micro-charities or event stories, please e-mail me at janet@5bucksischange.com
