SUMMARY:ImpactUp x Kalamazoo
DESCRIPTION:Come GATHER with us in Kalamazoo! On November 17 we will be partnering with We Are For Good for their next global Impact Up! event “Pause”. Join us as we remind ourselves that rest isn’t a break from our mission\, it is fuel for it! Lunch is provided. Register to attend here. \nAbout the event: \nYou can’t pour from an empty cup. And you shouldn’t have to. \n​ImpactUp is our global gathering of the We Are For Good community\, held four times a year. One theme\, many ripples. It kicks off with a virtual livestream\, then spreads out to local meetups hosted by community members in cities around the world. \n​This round\, our theme is Pause. Reconnecting to ourselves\, to our missions\, and to each other. \n​Rest isn’t a break from the work. It’s what makes the work last. \n​We built this one with you. Our community told us what they actually needed right now\, and the answers were clear: time off you can genuinely take\, leaders who go first\, and tools instead of more talk. \n​So that’s what this is. A few hours to stop\, breathe\, and sit with people who understand what you’re carrying.
