Leading Locally 2025 - All Programming
Conference Sessions
Leading Locally 2025 presents a diverse lineup of sessions and speakers, delivered by community and place-based funders and their partners from around the country. The concurrent, peer learning, and breakfast roundtable sessions on our schedule were selected through a call for sessions that received over 250 proposals.
Thursday, June 12
This discussion will explore what funders (including donors to community foundations) need from nonprofits in order to connect them to funding opportunities and philanthropic investors. Join a candid conversation about the ways organizations and funders might inadvertently create barriers to impactful philanthropy--and how funders can help bridge the gap between donors and nonprofits. We'll discuss practical takeaways on how stronger relationships and strategic positioning can lead to greater philanthropic investment and long-term transformation.
