About this event

Come for fellowship, enjoy food, be a part of the group portrait by photographer Alvin Jacobs (get in the picture!), and hear from our guest speaker Michelle Muri—co-founder of the Community-Centric Fundraising movement.

Community-Centric Fundraising reimagines fundraising with principles grounded in race, equity and social justice. It works to:

  • Prioritize the entire community over individual organizations
  • Foster a sense of belonging and interdependence
  • Present our work not as individual transactions but holistically
  • Encourage mutual support between nonprofits

Looking forward to being together again. Review our full #BPM2023CLT schedule below.

See you soon!
