ASPIRE Capital Region announced that the organization will be hosting a series of virtual FAFSA completion nights during May, June, and July. These nights are specifically targeting graduates from the class of 2020 and 2021, due to the decreased amount of FAFSAs submitted for these two years. During the completion night, students and parents will walk step-by-step through the FAFSA with local Tallahassee Community College financial aid expert, Bill Spiers. Additional financial aid experts will be on the call to answer individual questions from participants. The goal is for participants to complete and submit their application during the event.
Why I joined the Chamber
“In my line of work, success is dependent on cultivating relationships, which can be difficult without a common thread on which to build. The Chamber of Commerce has been the common thread that allowed me in the door where I could demonstrate the value I bring to the relationship. I recently began a working relationship with Anna Duren from Walter Green born entirely out of a connection first made by the Chamber. The opportunities afforded by my company’s Chamber membership opened doors for me in ways I have not seen with other business development strategies. In banking, familiarity and trust come first, and that usually has to develop over time. This is why the Chamber works for me – it allows me to dedicate the time and put the relationship before the ask.”
