Event description

What would happen if we filled a room with incredible BizNik members, networked, had a few drinks all while supporting a great cause? We invite you to our Networking with a Cause Happy Hour. Each month we will gather at a venue to do some business, meet new friends/business associates and support some of our favorite charitable organizations.

It’s simple to attend. Just gather some couch change, latte money or more along with your business cards and sparkling personality. At the end of the night, we will cut a check from all the donations to the nonprofit of the month on behalf of the BizNik Business Community. This is a great opportunity for all of us to bond together and make a difference in our world

This month we will be joined by the Northwest Animal Rights Network. We are also making this event recession-proof - meaning BYOB! We will provide some snacks as well as some door prizes.

August Cause of the Month – Northwest Animal Rights Network
Northwest Animal Rights Network is a Seattle-based animal rights organization. NARN has been dedicated to ending the exploitation of animals by raising awareness of animal suffering in the food, entertainment, experimentation, and fashion industries since 1986. Their efforts include outreach, demonstrations, litigation, and educational events. For more information about NARN, please visit http://www.narn.org/

What are you passionate about? Arts, Education, Health, Social Services or the Environment? Let us know and we will plan to honor and support your cause in the upcoming months. We will also be making time at these events to connect with people who share your non-profit passions.

    Tracy, Carol, and Robert -

    Thanks so much for organizing/offering these events. Thursday evenings almost never work for me (I'm back on Whidbey by Thursday evening each week), but I really appreciate the spirit behind this offering and hope to attend some day. I contribute to animal rights causes, so this one is especially close to my heart.

    Best to you all,

    ~Steve

    Thanks for posting on our site, Carol!

    And, if some of your network can't make it down to Seattle Thursday after work, please consider our first networking event at Winestyles up on the north side right off the 405! Wine and appetizers, great conversation and networking at its finest. Winestyles will be donating a portion of the evening's proceeds to support the Mill Creek Citizen Patrol -- an all-volunteer group serving the community. :)
