Description:
Big Problems In Our Community Get Solved, When Normal Folks Get Involved!
Join us for the kickoff of our local service club, Memphis' Army of Normal Folks!
Army of Normal Folks (ANF) is a podcast led by Coach Bill Courtney (from the Oscar-winning film Undefeated) built on a simple idea: our country’s problems won’t be solved by fancy people on TV. They’ll be solved by neighbors, coworkers, friends, and families, doing what we can, together.
Now, ANF is launching Local Service Clubs to reduce the barriers to service for everyone. This is crucial when only 33% of Americans are serving in their community at the level that they want to.
Come meet fellow community members at Grind City Brewing and learn about the service club’s sweet offerings that make service easier for everyone.
No pressure. No long-term commitment required. Just show up, have fun and make a difference!
Kids and the whole family are welcome to join us :)
Speakers at the event will include ANF's co-founder Coach Bill Courtney, David Jordan (President and CEO of Agape Child & Family Services) and Lydia Rosencrants (club President who's adopted 11 kids!)
