Thank you for a successful ribbon cutting ceremony!



We had so much to celebrate this past Thursday, September 15th, at our ribbon cutting ceremony! At this event graciously hosted by the Iowa City Area Business Partnership, we commemorated our recent name change to Global Ties Iowa and the work we have been doing since 1984.

Thank you to our Board, staff, members, volunteers, resources, and new faces who came to celebrate with us and learn more about what we do at Global Ties Iowa. We are so grateful for our community of citizen diplomats who continue to support us and our mission of connecting the world and the heartland.

As always, thank you for helping us connect the world and the heartland!
