Charleston has witnessed tragic events since we designated it as the location of our August Publisher Forum a year ago. As grateful guests of this lovely city, we want to give back and hopefully aid a community in need of healing. Therefore we will be donating a portion of our revenue from event registrations to the Mother Emanuel Hope Fund run by the city of Charleston.
