Difference Maker Summit 2026
A free, high-impact training for nonprofit leaders with expert workshops, networking & giveaways!
Join us for our 17th annual Difference Maker Summit!
Nonprofits are often asked to do more with less—and this year, we’re diving into how to do that in a way that’s sustainable.
But more importantly, this is a day to refill your cup.
You’ll connect with a diverse community of nonprofit leaders, gain practical tools you can actually use, and experience the kind of energy and encouragement that carries you long after the event. Add in great coffee from Cherrybomb to start your morning and a few surprises along the way, and you’ve got more than a conference—you’ve got a reset.
