Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.” Margaret Mead’s words are serving as the basis for a conference sponsored by Grantmakers of Western Pennsylvania and six other organizations, including the Union Project, which is expected to attract 1,000 attendees. “Nonprofits as Agents of Change: Leading Our Region’s Next Renaissance” is the theme of the 2005 Nonprofit Summit, which will be held on April 26 at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh. The conference will focus on leadership, change and transformation. It will feature two concurrent sessions that include 13 workshops on all aspects of change – planning, leading, crafting, facilitating, raising money for, advocating for, marketing for and more. It will also include five “town hall” meetings that focus on community issues such as healthy children, youth, and families; thriving neighborhoods, civic engagement, viable economies, and creative communities. The Union Project will be helping to organize the “town hall” session about creative communities. The registration fee is $75 for the first member of the organization and $65 for each additional member. Scholarships are available.
