Welcome to Inforum's Sustainability + Environmental Affinity Group
Join us for Inforum's newest affinity group that's all around sustainability and environmental work! The goal of this group is to provide learning and inspiration about work in this area being done in Michigan. One outcome the group is working toward will be building relationships between Inforum members and organizations focused on sustainability as an extension of our inSTEM initiative. One of the roles of the Affinity Group will be to help develop a pool of potential board members for nonprofits in the environmental and sustainability fields who don’t always have access to board candidates with corporate/business backgrounds.
