Heart Your Kidneys – GRAAHI

Share the goods.

The past several months, all of us at 834 have been hard at work on the Grand Rapids African American Health Institute, Heart Your Kidney campaign.

The campaign included the following elements, all developed by 834:

Campaign creation, development and management
Website design – www.heartyourkidneys.org
Copyrighting
Blogging
Social media management and design
Public relations
Design – logo, fact sheets, print material
Workshop development/curriculum
Project managment
Survey development

Working with non-profits is a passion for 834, and the Grand Rapids African American Health Institute is a phenomenal organization in our community focused on promoting health care parity in the Grand Rapids African American community through advocacy, education and research.
We encourage you to get involved with this ground-breaking organization.

This is why we do what we do. Most women business owners are left to navigate business ownership alone, juggling hiring, cash flow, and strategy while trying to keep the lights on. It’s overwhelming and it’s lonely.

The Women’s Entrepreneurial Fellowship is designed to change that. It’s an intentionally small cohort because real support doesn’t happen in a crowded room. Participants will receive the support they’ve been missing, and the tools, knowledge, and networks needed to scale - all guided by people who have built and grown businesses themselves.

If you’re a second-stage business owner ready to grow, this program is for you. Applications close on September 15.

Apply at the link in bio.

Perimenopause results in a brutal shift in energy, productivity, motivation, and mental clarity. We are leading companies, people, and navigating and holding up the world while the general public gets the ‘ick’ at the mention of our bodies, physicians hand out antidepressants as a solution, and there is little to no education or awareness on the subject.

Combine the two and you get our next Uncomfortable Conversation: The Pause, presented in partnership with the SBAM Women’s Business Council.

Let`s get uncomfortable together. Register for the conversation. Link in bio.

Comfort in the uncomfortable. It`s kind of our thing (@bodespeaks literally has it tattooed on her arm). If you’re following along, you know our next Uncomfortable Community Conversation, in partnership with the @smallbusinessassocofmichigan Women’s Business Council, is back. This time we`re talking perimenopause - like, actually, talking about it because there is little to no education on it - and its impact on business owners.

Real conversations with real people + wine = Always a good time as you can see in the photos.

See you at “The Pause” September 24. And yes, men, we mean you too.

@bodespeaks is heading down to see our friends at Women in Defense Space Coast for their industry, awards dinner and leadership retreat. @widcfl

A little birdie told us that she’ll be speaking during the retreat, we’re hoping someone grabs a few photos.

Did you know that Women In Defense and NDIA is one of our clients and we’ve built over 15 chapter websites for them and @ndiatoday @widnational
