Community Builders Network

Powered by The US Chamber of Connection & Heylo

People participating in an outdoor group workout or fitness class in a park, with some stretching or warming up, during the daytime with trees and fences in the background.

  • “I can honestly say it’s been transformative. I have new ideas about building awareness, inspiration and best practices and the support is immeasurable. Anyone actively building community for others would benefit.”

    JONNI RESSLER
    Co-Founder, Improv Happy Hour

  • “I really enjoy being part of a community that is built around community building itself. Ironically, it can feel lonely to be building community alone!”

    AUDREY PHILLIPS
    Founder of Hart to Harts

  • “Through the Community Builders Network, I've made refreshing personal and professional connections. The gatherings are thought provoking, productive, and mutually supportive.”

    ANNE LIVINGSTON
    Founder of the Ballard Collective
