Calendar of Events

CoThinkk is a “giving circle” that uses our collective time, talent, and treasure towards investment strategies that address education, economic mobility/opportunity, and leadership development towards impacting some of the most critical social issues facing African-American & Latinx communities in Asheville and Western NC.

This meeting will be a reflection space for our October Annual Event and strategic planning session for our future.

This meeting will provide an opportunity for us to continue to move our collective agenda, plot out next steps in our committees: our February Member Mixer/Fundraiser, a Capacity Building Workshop, and planning On-Boarding for new members.

We are encouraging existing and new members to bring others with you as we move into the next leg of our journey as 2018 comes to an end!

Please RSVP. We need everyone’s voice!

We continue to look forward to having diverse voices and communities in the room to help shape this agenda. If you have any questions or concerns please free to send me an e-mail at [email protected]. I look forward to seeing everyone in the room.

***Please inbox me if you need interpreter support and/or childcare***

Thanks,

Objective:
Create a new greenway where the approved path will run alongside NC 280 through the heart of Mills River, connecting the town to the French Broad River at Westfeldt Park, near the Asheville Airport.

Beer Release:
MRVT Oatmeal Stout — 5.3% ABV, 29 IBUs. Lots of flaked oats, chocolate and roasted barely went into this classic recipe.

Fundraiser:
$1 of every pint sold will be donated to the greenway project. The Town of Mills River successfully applied for grant funding to pay for 80% of the cost of the engineering phase of this project. But to receive this funding, a match of 20% of the cost must come from the local community. That means that every $1 given results in $5 of funding. So have a MRVT Oatmeal Stout and do your part!

Food:
The Hungry Ghost will be open from 4-9PM

Music:
Derek McCoy Trio will take the stage from 7-9PM
