There are as many versions of Memphis as there are Memphians. We have something for everyone… and a soul like no other city’s.
Take a look through MemphisConnect and you’ll understand why the 100+ diverse voices represented are all inspired to call Memphis home.

On Tuesday, May 25th from 5:30-7:30pm the Grizzlies Foundation will host a Happy Hour gathering at Neely’s Bar-B-Que at 5700 Mt. Moriah in order to talk and answer questions about why and how people can inspire a young person as a mentor. Food will be provided and we will draw for some Grizzlies prizes as well. As a courtesy please email us at mentor@grizzlies.com to RSVP or call 901-205-TEAM (8326).
In addition to learning about how you can encourage a young person by being a mentor, we will be joined by representatives from the nonprofits who work with youth in Memphis. They will be on hand to answer questions and make sure you understand that you are the right person, you have the right skills and you can succeed as a mentor!
MemphisConnect is a partnership between The Leadership Academy, MemphisED and Simple Focus. We provide a gathering place for diverse Memphians to share the opportunities, initiatives and activities that inspire them to make Memphis home.
MemphisConnect is always looking for people who are passionate about Memphis and want to help move our community forward. Get in touch if you have a story for us to share, of if you want to write for us!
