5. Annual Conference for Growing Community Foundations

October 13-15, 2021

Each community has challenges and opportunities specific to that place and region, yet, there are some common approaches. Community Indicator program like Southwest Florida CF’s “CompleteLEE: Sustainability Plan,” Canada’s “Vital Signs” and the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals offer common threads across society, economy and the environment. The conference will have a shared focus on how we approach external indicators in ways that shape our unique communities for today and the future. And, how do we use internal measures to better inform foundation operations such as grant programs, donor development, community leadership, impact investing or economic development to serve community foundation’s mission.
