ABOUT COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS

In 2020, our dedication to supporting area philanthropists and fundraisers spurred the creation of Community Connections: Detroit Philanthropy’s Educational and Networking Series. Moving into our 4th year, we’ve held nearly 25 events featuring industry experts from area foundations, corporations, and community partners. More importantly, we’ve provided a forum for convening the nonprofit sector so thay they can learn and grown together; all while hearing directly from those who make critical funding decisions.

What’s in Store for 2024

  • 3 panel discussions centered around timely nonprofit/philanthropy topics

  • 1 signature event , featuring a keynote speaker, expert panel discussion and nonprofit resources

  • 2 recorded interviews with area funders/philanthropists

  • 1 industry networking event to bring together the nonprofit and philanthropic community to socialize and network
    with each other

All events are designed to help those in the nonprofit sector gain valuable insights and connections.
