Asian American & Pacific Islander (AAPI) Nonprofit Roundtable

Attention AAPI nonprofit professionals!

We are excited to extend a warm invitation to our upcoming Asian American & Pacific Islander (AAPI) Nonprofit Roundtable. More than a gathering, this is an invitation to dive into enriching discussions aimed at spreading equity throughout the nonprofit community.

At this roundtable, we'll dive headfirst into open and honest conversations, exchange cultural and professional experiences, share insights, and brainstorm ways to supercharge our resource development efforts. Together, we'll tackle the big issues facing our community and the ways we can come together to solve them.

Like other roundtables, this event will center heavily on creating an environment for attendees to network with like-minded professionals. Consider it a chance to gather with fellow movers and shakers within a supportive atmosphere where everyone is heard.

So, what are you waiting for? Let's band together and make some magic happen!
