The summit will feature presentations and networking sessions that will provide opportunities for partnerships between nonprofit and higher education leaders.
Breakout sessions will touch on topics including Engaging with Millennials, Foundations of Effective Service Projects, and more. Sessions specifically tailored for executive directors will be available and presented by staff from Grand Valley’s Johnson Center for Philanthropy and College of Community and Public Service.
