Help Marlee

Dear BNI Family,

Many of you know Marlee as a longtime, committed member of our chapter—someone who shows up with positivity, generosity, and a genuine heart for helping others succeed. Over the past year, however, life has presented her with some extremely difficult medical challenges. While she continues to push forward with strength and determination, the medical expenses and loss of work time have created significant financial strain.

Despite all she has been going through, Marlee deeply wishes to continue being part of BNI. This group has been a source of connection, encouragement, professional opportunity, and friendship for her for many years. Unfortunately, due to ongoing medical bills, she is currently unable to afford her BNI renewal fee of $949.

As her BNI community, we have the opportunity to support someone who has poured so much into us. If you feel led and are able, we are asking for contributions to help raise $1,000 to cover her renewal and allow her to remain part of our group. Any amount truly helps and is deeply appreciated—no gift is too small.

Your kindness will not only help relieve a financial burden but will also let Marlee know she is surrounded by a community that values and believes in her.

Thank you for considering helping her stay with the BNI family she loves so much, and thank you for being the caring, supportive network that BNI is known for.

With gratitude,
