Join us for Doxa Dinner
Doxa Dinners are designed to address the needs of local entrepreneurs and foster community support for those solving problems through new and creative ideas! At a Doxa micro-grant dinner—friends, family, and community members come together to hear the entrepreneurial ideas forming in their area and to help seed-fund startups and small businesses that aim to improve the quality of life for those around them!
Attendees contribute $5 at the door which is then added to the pool of funds to be awarded at the end of the night. Five local individuals present a 5-minute verbal pitch about their business idea and attendees vote on who receives the micro-grant. Doxa Dinners are a great way for people who have business ideas but aren’t prepared to take out a loan or have a large network to work with.
