This is the first Business Leader NW event. I like their approach to the community. The organizers have made it a point to support nonprofits through registrations. For each person who registers, they will give $25 to a nonprofit.

The following nonprofits are participating:

School House Supplies: A Portland nonprofit that provides free school supplies for teachers.
Oregon Food Bank: Distributes food to regional food banks across Oregon and SW Washington.
Cystic Fibrosis Foundation: the official charity for the conference - the foundation provides funding for research to fight cystic fibrosis.

Could you help in this effort by telling your community about it? Nonprofits need our help more than ever.  My goal is to get 50 people to register. That would be $1,250 to nonprofits. We all know that every bit counts.

A code for each participating nonprofit is provided. Registrants place the code in the “promo code” box at the bottom of the registration.

Here are the codes you may choose from.  When registering, you or people in your community, may place this code in the promo box at the bottom of the registration form:

SHS199: School House Supplies
OFB199: Oregon Food Bank
CFF199: Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

Thanks. I hope to see you at the conference.
