About this Event
Are you a Community-Centric Fundraiser? Interested in learning more about what that means or going deeper in your learning to address inequity and injustice in the philanthropy sector? Gather with others to discuss topics relevant for your work and how we can all work towards meaningful change in our sector!
We do need to cap attendance at 30 people, so be sure to register to save your spot and release your spot if you can no longer attend.
You don't have to be an expert in CCF, but we won't be going over the basics of CCF at the meeting, so we expect everyone to do some reading, watching, or listening before we meet.
Here are some resources you can check out to get up to speed:
