2008 Rural Philanthropy

Conference

Plan now to attend the Nebraska Community Foundation’s Rural Philanthropy Conference, September 10-12, 2008 in Nebraska City, Nebraska.

• Join leaders in community development philanthropy from across the nation. 

• Explore how charitable giving can be a tool for revitalizing rural economies and restoring hope.

• Discover how the intergenerational transfer of wealth is being used as a call to action for successful community endowment building in Nebraska and in other states. 

• Learn how to craft strategic grant making policies that lead to long-term, high impact community improvement.   

Bring a team to participate in more than 20 concurrent sessions ranging from board engagement, to donor cultivation, to marketing and communications. See firsthand how grassroots groups are engaging youth and attracting young families back to their hometowns. Be inspired by your colleagues who are sharing and adapting “HomeTown Competitiveness” practices in their own communities. And develop take-home strategies for action during each and every session.  

The 2008 Rural Philanthropy Conference is back by popular demand from people who are serious about putting philanthropy to work in their communities. Join us!
