A big thank you for supporting Lifting the Limits! We appreciate you!!
Great Night, Great Cause, Great People They say great things come in threes… and Saturday night was no exception! Pinnacle Financial Partners was proud to sponsor a table at the National PKU Alliance Event in Nashville, where the energy in the room was electric. Together, with the incredible support of attendees, we raised over $600,000 to advance critical research for PKU. This funding will make a significant impact in the lives of individuals and families affected by this rare genetic disorder. We are truly grateful for our friends, colleagues, and partners who joined us in supporting this important cause. Their generosity and enthusiasm helped make this night unforgettable. Gather like-minded friends, find a cause that speaks to your heart, and you’ll be amazed at what you can achieve together. Here’s to great nights, great causes, and great people! #MondayMotivation #Grateful #Thankful
