National Summit for the Charitable and Nonprofit Sector

The National Summit for the Charitable and Nonprofit Sector is bringing together leaders from across sub-sectors and from across the country to focus on the top four priorities for action identified in a recent national survey:

• Improved conditions for the attraction and retention of paid staff;
• More diversified and sustainable financing;
• Better understanding of our work and our impact;

• Enhanced support for the engagement of volunteers/external talent.

Summit organizers have also lined up an exciting roster of speakers, including:

• Governor-General David Johnston, delivering the opening address;
• Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi on the role of the sector in building vibrant and resilient communities;
• Social commentator Allan Gregg on where we sit on the radar screens of decision-makers, the media and the public;
• Emmanuelle Hébert, co-Founder of MU in Montreal, will be speaking about community and citizen engagement.
