Metro South Weekly - July 22, 2026

One email. Every Wednesday. Everything that matters.

We're retiring the daily blasts and monthly newsletter in favor of Metro South Weekly — a single, consolidated weekly email with everything you need to know from Metro South: upcoming events, member benefits, industry news, member spotlights, and more, all in one place, every Wednesday. Our belief is that less can be more - no more digging through a dozen emails to find what's relevant. If it matters to your business, it's in here.

We Need Volunteers for the C.I.A.

(Compassion in Action Committee)

Didn't expect to see that today, did you? MSAR is proud to present the Compassion in Action Committee (formerly CarePAC) and is seeking volunteers!

Scope of Work: The purpose of this committee is to show solidarity and support when members of the MSAR family are sick, grieving the loss of a loved one, or are otherwise in need of support. Support may look like offering words of comfort, providing meals, or even just sitting with someone in their time of need.

If you are interested in volunteering for this type of work, we encourage you to follow the link below, then check "Compassion in Action" on the Committee Application Form.
