A Night to Honor the Direct Services Providers Making A Difference in the Network.
A Night With the Stars is the Community Impact Network yearly event where we recognize and honor the invaluable contributions of direct service providers within the Network. These remarkable individuals are the unsung heroes who tirelessly work to forge genuine connections with the residents of our community.
The night is fully dedicated to the frontline heroes. It won’t be a night to discuss the organizations they represent, the executives who lead them, or the boards that govern them. Instead, it is an evening dedicated to celebrating and shining a light on the individuals who are the true luminaries of service in the Network. Their dedication and compassion are the driving forces behind positive change, and the Community Impact Network is excited to acknowledge their outstanding efforts.
