Presented by Jason Poisson, The Jack and Buena Foundation
"So many nonprofit organizations in our community run parallel to each other without touching base or working together. While I understand some of the underlying reasons for this, I am here to suggest how that frame of thinking can be limiting. This presentation is for us to examine a few of the ways that collaborating can help us to increase our productivity, grant writing potentials, and staff building / retention. Throughout this presentation, we will share some ways that collaboration might help us personally and professionally. Through this process I hope that we open lines of communication with each other and our organizations in innovative and fun ways how we might be able to collaborate in the future."
