What is the best way to appeal to funders who are interested in collective impact?

How can we accelerate broad, sweeping social change?
August 9, 8:30 am-3:30 pm
Lipscomb University, Ezell Center
As a community, Nashville has done a great job building up strong nonprofit organizations that tackle some of our city’s biggest challenges. So how can we really take these efforts to the next level? How can we accelerate broad, sweeping social change?
Other cities are making headway on complex community challenges through collective efforts – utilizing a framework for change called collective impact. Join Nashville’s cross-sector leaders on August 9 at Lipscomb University to learn from national and local experts about collective impact. Participants will learn about key elements of collective impact and how this framework has been successful in helping communities across the nation make progress on complex issues. Breakout sessions will provide practical tools and lessons learned to support Nashville leaders in creating a culture of collective action.
