Join us for this 90-minute Discovery Salon, where we’ll explore how our neighboring Placer County Community Foundation is working with nonprofits—not just alongside them—to attract new resources, build capacity, and prepare for a future where everyone thrives. Eileen Speaker of the Placer Community Foundation will share real-world examples of successful nonprofit collaboration, and we’ll host an open, moderated dialogue on what’s possible when we align around shared goals.
What you’ll gain from this session:
- A better understanding of how community foundations complement direct service nonprofits as catalysts and connectors who bring in more dollars, long-term thinking, and flexible support
- Examples of successful joint fundraising, capacity building, and resilience planning
- Ways to engage with COFONC such as donor collaboratives, learning events, and fiscal sponsorships, plus an opportunity to contribute your ideas for what is needed
- A forum to ask questions and voice your perspective
We know that trust is earned, not assumed. This event is just one step toward deeper transparency and a stronger philanthropic ecosystem. We hope you’ll be a part of it.
