Dear PMI Buffalo Members,

As we move into March, I want to take a moment to reflect on our chapter’s progress and share our vision for the months ahead. We have seen tremendous engagement from our members,and I am excited about the direction we are heading.

Current State

Our chapter continues to grow, with new members joining and existing members getting more involved. Attendance at our monthly dinner events has been steady, but we recognize the need to enhance participation and engagement. We are working diligently to ensure that these events provide valuable networking and professional development opportunities.

Additionally, our volunteer base is growing, but we still need more hands to help drive our initiatives forward. If you’ve ever considered giving back to the chapter, now is a great time to get involved. Whether you have a few hours a month or can take on a leadership role, your contributions will make a difference.

Future Plans

  • Increasing Membership & Engagement – We are implementing new strategies to attract and retain members, including more targeted outreach and enhanced member benefits.
  • Professional Development & Training – Our year-long professional development series is underway, bringing in high-quality speakers and offering hands-on workshops to help you grow in your career.
  • Networking Opportunities – We are expanding our events to include more informal networking meetups, allowing members to connect outside of our traditional dinner meetings.
  • Partnerships & Outreach – Our outreach efforts continue to strengthen our relationships with local organizations, colleges, and veteran groups. We believe that by expanding our partnerships, we can provide even more opportunities for our members.

Call to Action

I encourage all of you to take full advantage of what PMI Buffalo has to offer. Attend an event, volunteer for a committee, or simply engage with your fellow members. The strength of our chapter comes from its members, and together, we can accomplish great things.

Thank you for your continued support, and I look forward to seeing you at our upcoming events!

Best regards,
Vince McKeown
President, PMI Buffalo
