Re-imagining Philanthropy: Unlocking Your Non-Profit's Potential - A Conversation with Dan Pallotta

Is your organization asking the right questions and making the right decisions to truly realize your potential?

Join entrepreneur and activist Dan Pallotta — the author of Uncharitable: How Restraints on Nonprofits Undermine Their Potential and The Everyday Philanthropist — as he leads a conversation about how non-profits can fully realize their potential in a charitable landscape that is ripe for innovation. Dan will share with us how removing barriers on the non-profit sector will lead to a world where our most pressing social problems can be solved.

This is the fourth in a series of speakers discussing transformative leadership in the non-profit community. The Edmonton Chamber of Voluntary Organizations is committed to building the social justice muscle needed to transform the non-profit community. Our ongoing Transformative Thinkers Series explores how alternative systems of knowledge might be used to reimagine how we structure and run our organizations.
