Inspire Impact Breakfast to honor Mesa County’s nonprofits

The Community Impact Council will host its annual Inspire Impact Breakfast on March 31 at Colorado Mesa University, bringing together nonprofit leaders, community partners and supporters to celebrate the work and impact of Mesa County’s nonprofit sector. The event is sponsored by Colorado Mesa University and will take place 8-10 a.m. in CMU’s Ballroom.

Individual tickets are $30, and tables of eight are available for $200. Tickets can be purchased at www.communityimpactcouncil.org/events.

CIC, a coalition of approximately 80 local nonprofits and community supporters, will recognize outstanding nonprofit staff members, volunteers, board members and businesses that have demonstrated exceptional commitment to the community. The organization’s highest honor, the Living Legacy Award, will be presented to Enstrom Candies in recognition of its longstanding and meaningful philanthropic contributions across the Western Slope.

The keynote speaker is Zebulon Miracle, CEO of Roice-Hurst Humane Society and a local historian. A lifelong Colorado resident, Miracle previously held leadership positions with United Way of Mesa County, the Museums of Western Colorado and the Gateway Auto Museum, and he currently serves on the board for History Colorado. He is known for his passion for sharing the stories and cultural traditions that define Western Colorado.
