Want to Start a Net Impact Chapter?
Great! Net Impact is powered by more than 290 chapters around the globe — our chapter leaders commit to making a difference every day both for themselves and others. They’re gaining valuable leadership skills and resume-building experiences, while helping their members and community join a new generation of leaders who use their careers to tackle the world's toughest challenges.
Why Start a Chapter?
A chapter will connect you with over 290 chapters globally and give you the opportunity to:
- Educate students about how to make a difference in their community and the world, through their career
- Help them network with students and professionals who do just that, and
- Provide experiential learning opportunities to make a positive impact on campus while developing these crucial professional skills.
What Does a chapter do?
Local chapters are autonomous groups, operating with permission from and the support of Net Impact Central. Net Impact provides resources and guidance for Chapter Leaders and in exchange, Chapter Leaders commit to Net Impact's mission and policies. Our chapters actively do the following:
- Provide 6-20 educational or experiential learning events/projects per year for their members, including speakers events, site visits, career treks, environmental initiatives, nonprofit strategic consulting for local nonprofits, professional development workshops, and more.
- Make positive change on campus and in the community, by providing opportunities for their members to engage in Service Corps, Campus Greening, or Board Fellows, Net Impact’s core chapter programs
- Introduce relationship building opportunities for their members, through collaborating other Net Impact chapters in the network, maximizing the benefits of the Net Impact Member Directory and Events Calendar, engaging directly with the community in local business partnerships, and attending the Net Impact Annual Conference
