Introduction
Since 2020, we’ve created a space where leaders from across Charlotte-Mecklenburg, and beyond, come together to share updates, highlight community needs, and build meaningful connections with others working toward a common purpose.
Why Join
Regular participation helps you build and strengthen relationships, stay inspired by the innovation and creativity happening across our community, and remain connected to both the needs and the organizations serving this dynamic and diverse region.
Share Your Message
This bi-weekly gathering is an opportunity to share your mission, promote upcoming events or offerings, and invite collaboration or support for your work. Presentations are typically around five minutes, depending on the agenda. You’re welcome to simply speak or share your screen during the Zoom call.
Connect with a Wider Audience
Each meeting is recorded, with notes and highlights compiled into a newsletter and blog post. This content is shared with approximately 1,000 subscribers, with a 99% delivery rate and a 54% open rate. By presenting during the call, your updates and events are automatically included in the meeting recap and shared with our broader network.
You can view a recent newsletter here.
HELP US KEEP THESE MEETINGS GOING:
Help us show our board and our community that this work matters and is worth the substantial investment of staff time and resources by supporting this work with a financial donation. If you feel moved, please mention this meeting in particular. There are several ways you can support us.
We hope you will choose one, two or all:
Become an Affiliate Member (for nonprofits and community groups)
If you become an affiliate member, you can publicize your work as often as you like throughout the year through our e-newsletter, website, Facebook and Instagram. You'll also get recognition of your membership on MeckMIN's website. Depending on your budget, affiliate memberships are as little as $100 a year and give you access to share the good work you are doing all year long. It's a true win-win!

Houses of faith can also become members and receive the same benefits.
