CELEBRATE NATIONAL PHILANTHROPY DAY WITH US!

Join us for a positive & inspiring evening at the

Sea Mar Museum of Chicano/a/Latino/a Culture

9635 Des Moines Memorial Dr, Seattle, WA

November 8, 4:30-8:00 pm

The past few years have sharpened our understanding of the needs of the communities we serve, and given us ample opportunity to consider how we meet those needs. On November 8, 2023, we will gather as community leaders to examine the power of philanthropy to drive conversation and change in our world, and how we can feed our hope and optimism even as threats to a better world intensify. Our program will feature an open and candid conversation between dynamic practitioners who offer reality, clarity, and hope. We will share insights on increasing organizational impact, lifting up diverse voices, and celebrating our successes, even as we work to dismantle entrenched systemic challenges. We will present two National Philanthropy Day Awards to professionals in our community who exemplify excellence in development work at the celebration.

Moderator: Jeanne Galloway, Vice President of Advancement & Enrollment, Bastyr University
