Saturday, Nov. 4, 9:30AM-4PM, Drexel University, Philadelphia
This event will bring together college students, faculty, nonprofit professionals, and community organizers to share passionate ideas and practical skills for building a better Philadelphia. This year’s theme, The Nonprofit Sector, will focus awareness on the myriad ways college students (and others) aim to make positive change on their campuses, in their communities, and around the world whether through direct service, indirect service, advocacy, activism, or some combination. LILAC | Civic Engagement can pay your registration fee and reimburse your SEPTA costs!
The keynote speaker of the Service Leaders Summit will be Dr. Deborah Diamond, President & CEO of Campus Philly. Workshops will explore topics such as:
- The 5 Things You Wish You Knew Before You Started A Nonprofit by Oscar Wang, founder and CEO of Mentor for Philly
- Social Media for the Social Sector by Leah McGlone, Communications and Social Media, Witty Gritty
- The Social Ecosystem by Dr. Jim Klinger, professor emeritus, Villanova University
