This is a member’s only event.

The DSBC 6-Top Mingle is designed to provide a valuable platform for networking with fellow small businesses. These events offer an intimate setting with a maximum of six participants per table, creating an ideal environment for meaningful conversations and building long-lasting connections.
 
At each 6-Top Mingle, you will have the opportunity to showcase your products and services, while also hearing from other like-minded professionals who are not in direct competition with you. The structure of these events allows each participant to speak for 10-15 minutes, ensuring that everyone has equal time to talk about their company and engage with the group.
 
The benefits of attending 6-Top Mingles go beyond the event itself. By forging relationships with other business people, you can establish a dynamic sales team that mutually promotes and supports each other's businesses. The connections made at these events can be invaluable for growing your network and expanding your reach in the business community.
 
Please note the following guidelines for attending the 6-Top Mingle events:

  1. Only one person per company may attend the 6-Tops.
  2. Restaurants may not be familiar with the term "6-Top," so kindly inform them that you are waiting for up to five other people.
  3. We offer multiple time options for the 6-Top Mingles, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner gatherings. Members may choose to attend one event per month, either upstate or downstate.
  4. Each group may select a “time-keeper” so that no one person should dominate the conversation and everyone should have equal time to speak

 
To ensure the success of these events, we kindly ask all attendees to be punctual and honor their commitment to attend. If you are running more than 15 minutes late or unable to attend, please contact the Chamber at 302-482-2120 as soon as possible. There is a $10 fee for any member who is late or a no-show without prior contact, as we want to maintain the integrity and effectiveness of these networking opportunities.

Terrie M Williams Expansion, Inc. invite you to join us as we reflect on the problems of homelessness in our state. According to Housing Alliance Delaware's 2024 Point-In-Time Count, “approximately 1,358 people are experiencing homelessness in the First State. More than one in four of those experiencing homelessness are children”.  The 2024 PIT Count is a 9% increase from 2023, and highest on record in Delaware, not including 2021-2022/COVID-19 years.  Since 2020, the unsheltered count has increased by 58% (Housing Alliance Delaware, Pit Count, Jan 2024). We are in need of your financial support to help eradicate homelessness.

Fortunately, compassionate and informed citizens, such as yourselves, understand the reality of these problems and feel compelled to contribute to the solution. Providing housing assistance and advocacy are at the heart of our mission.  From March 2022 to present, we have assisted over 750 families and individuals with rental, utility, security, storage, motel stay, food, clothing, book bags, toys and supplies along with hosting financial and estate planning workshops to name some of the many services that we provide. Clients received over a quarter million dollars in financial housing stability assistance. Our resources stretch to those that are homeless; citizens transitioning from prison; Veterans; the LGBTQ community; widows; the elderly; and the disabled to name a few.
