This groundbreaking series looks at philanthropy in twelve different communities in Ontario and aims to build greater capacity and cultural competencies in the charitable sector for a caring Canada.

Who should attend?

This one-day education and networking conference is for Ontario-based nonprofit leaders, fundraisers, volunteers and donors. Although many sessions will be particularly helpful to organizations and fundraisers with a focus on supports and advocacy for people with disabilities, the conference will also provide important information and insights for the broader charitable sector.

Fundraising professionals and volunteer fundraisers will benefit from a stronger understanding of the disability community, both as beneficiaries and as benefactors of philanthropic activity.
