About this event
This fall, we are deep-diving into how non-profits are changing to center the voices of our Black, Indigenous, and People of Color communities. The three-part series will each feature an hour-long presentation and conversation for Partners and community to learn together. Whether you are new to non-profits or seasoned in the sector, you’ll gain new information and contribute to the conversation. Each of the hour-long sessions will feature SVP Seattle Partners and non-profit leaders sharing their wisdom and experience. The first session will focus on non-profit history and mission, in What’s the Backstory of Non-Profits? The second session will feature a conversation on non-profit models and philosophy, in Shedding the Charity Mantra, and the third session will delve into non-profit boards and governance to answer the question Who is Robert, and Why Are We Following His Rules? Join for one session, or better yet, all three.

In the second session, SVP Board Chair Ruby Love will cover the model and philosophy of non-profit organizations. How are they different for government or for-profit businesses? What are the different kinds of non-profit organizations and structures?
