Philanthropy in The Peel - Connecting the Community

Join us for a Networking event, aimed at introducing, connecting and growing a community of like-minded philanthropic local people. Our theme of Philanthropy in the Peel focuses on exploring the transformative power of giving and its impact on our community. 

Discover how philanthropy goes beyond monetary donations to encompass volunteering, advocacy, and knowledge sharing. Learn about how the Peel Community Foundation supports and drives the various forms of philanthropy, including individual giving, corporate social responsibility, and community foundations, and how each plays a vital role in addressing societal challenges and fostering positive change.

Hear from Ian Bird, Chief Executive Officer, Community Foundations Australia about the form, function and impact of community foundations in regional communities globally.  Ian is a seasoned executive in the community foundation sector and innovator in the field of collective action and network leadership.  He has come to the role at CFA from Community Foundations of Canada and Chair of the Global Fund for Community Foundations.

Whether you're a seasoned philanthropist or new to the concept, this event promises to be a thought-provoking exploration of the power of giving and its potential to create a brighter future for all residents of the Peel region. Join us and be part of the journey towards a more vibrant and compassionate community.

A light supper will be provided and beverages can be purchased at the bar.
