Networking Opportunities and Giving Back

NPF attendees can give back by volunteering time and service at a Habitat for Humanity home build. You don’t have to be a carpenter; the only prerequisite is the desire to help others.

Saturday, June 1 (Time TBA), the NPF and sponsor The Berkshire Company, along with 25 volunteers will spend the day giving back for a deserving Indianapolis area family. Together, they’ll help construct a home for a family who cannot find affordable options. Volunteer by pre-registering at NPF.org. NPF will assign the first 25 volunteers. There is a $25 non-refundable fee to participate in this giving event. All fees collected will be donated to the Habitat for Humanity of the Indianapolis Region. Round-trip transportation and lunch will be provided by NPF.
