NFI & Friends of the Riverfront - Impact Event

In place of our typical types of monthly gatherings, we're doing a hands-on volunteer evening with one of the nonprofits doing great work to keep our city clean, Friends of the Riverfront. Since 1991, Friends of the Riverfront has worked to protect and restore the riverfront in the Pittsburgh region through trail development and stewardship after decades of legacy pollution. All are welcome to join at Aslin Beer Company from 5:00-9:00pm for our usual networking and sips. The Network for Impact team will be stationed here for the evening, and we look forward to seeing you! Everyone will pay their own way. For those who want to engage in our impact cleanup event, please review the info below.
