On Tuesday, Oct. 5, from 9-10 a.m., the Community Foundation of Sarasota County will host free interactive virtual panel discussion with three local nonprofits connecting people and ideas to build a more equitable region. The program will feature Donna Hanley, a board member with Project Pride SRQ; Jeannie Perales, chief experience officer at The Bay Park Conservancy; and Michéle Des Verney Redwine, executive director of the Suncoast Black Arts Collaborative. The conversation will be moderated by Mercedes Soler, president and co-owner of Solmart Media and a board member of the Community Foundation.

During the discussion, each panelist will share how their organization is giving voice to those they serve through unique mediums to highlight the diversity in thought, perspectives, and opinions in our region. To register, click here.
