On Wednesday, October 23, 2024, Common Good Vermont will convene Vermont’s nonprofit community, allies, and partners for the first Vermont Nonprofit Summit at the Capitol Plaza Hotel in Montpelier.

This new event will bring together nonprofit leaders from diverse sectors to share innovative ideas, best practices, and collaborative solutions to address pressing challenges in our state.

Whether you’re a seasoned nonprofit professional, a dedicated volunteer, or someone interested in making a difference, this Summit offers something for you. We eill dive into topics including fundraising, organizational development, communication, and more. Through an engaging keynote panel, interactive workshops, facilitated discussions, and networking opportunities, attendees will gain valuable insights and practical tools to enhance their impact in the nonprofit sector. Learn from experienced leaders in the field and connect with like-minded peers who share your commitment to creating positive change.

Designed to support participant learning and connection, this full-day in-person event includes:

• Keynote Panel: A New Generation Transitions to Leadership Our sector is evolving! Join us to explore the demographic shift that is occurring in Vermont and in our nonprofit sector. Vermont Public’s Mikaela Lefrak will moderate a panel of emerging and experienced nonprofit leaders to discuss how our sector can grow, support, and learn from a new generation of leadership.
• Breakout Sessions Choose your own adventure! With two breakout sessions on the agenda featuring 12 diverse offerings, there is something for every role and every goal including engaging workshops, informative presentations, and opportunities for connection.
• Communities of Practice Find your people! As defined by Etienne Wegner, a community of practice is a group of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do, and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly. In this spirit, these breakouts will help you to connect with and learn from your peers with similar roles or interests through informal facilitated discussions. Focus areas will be finalized based on registrations, but in addition to an Executive Director Roundtable, there will be sessions around fundraising/development, policy/advocacy, marketing/communications and more!

Together, let’s harness the power of collective action to build thriving communities and create lasting social impact. Join us at the Vermont Nonprofit Summit and be part of a unified movement towards a brighter future for all.
