Meets the CREW Network Chapter Challenge

A challenge we have met every year since 2015, the CREW Network Foundation Chapter Challenge increases awareness of the Foundation’s powerful reach. As a result, members have raised thousands of dollars for scholarships, industry research and career outreach. The Challenge is achieved by completing three tasks: 1. Get 100% of your chapter’s board to give an individual donation; 2. Get 50% of your chapter’s membership to give an individual donation; and 3. Chapter gives an organizational donation of $1,000 or more.
