Join your PR colleagues and practitioners for an invigorating brainstorming session on behalf of two worthy causes!

The Arkansas Chapter of PRSA is honored to host this year’s NonPRofit Roundtable on Nov. 16 at 11:30 a.m. As in years past, the application process was difficult, but we have selectedARVets, Inc. and Senior Citizens Activities Today, Inc. to participate in the 2012 NonPRofit Roundtable. These organizations are very excited to meet our members and start generating great ideas for their causes.

Below is a brief description of each nonprofit and a link to their website, so please take a few minutes prior to the meeting to learn more about each organization and start formulating questions, comments and, most importantly, those fantastic PR ideas. We won’t have more than an hour, so we want everyone to study and prepare as much as possible!

Also, please be aware that we have extended the time of our November meeting. We’re asking that all members be at the Little Rock Club by 11:30 a.m. to begin going through the buffet. That way, we’ll all be seated and ready to start brainstorming by the noon hour. Thank you in advance!
