Patrick County Chamber of Commerce and Virginia Tech’s Reynolds Homestead are bringing together resources, training, and networking opportunities for local and regional nonprofit organizations. The Patrick County Nonprofit Organization Summit, scheduled for Nov. 7 at Patrick & Henry Community College’s Patrick County site, will launch ticket sales on Aug. 3.
Nonprofit organizations are the backbone of many public services, events, and community enrichment efforts throughout Patrick County and the surrounding region. From grant writing and fundraising to board governance and program management, nonprofit staff and volunteers must wear many hats. This summit will provide practical tools, professional development opportunities, and connections that strengthen organizations and their impact. Attendees will learn about recruitment and retention strategies, event planning, and other best practices that support organizations at every stage. Whether launching a new nonprofit, managing growth, or leading an established organization, participants will find valuable takeaways and resources.
“Nonprofit organizations are essential to the strength and vitality of our county,” says Chamber of Commerce director Rebecca Adcock. “They fill critical needs, bring people together, and improve quality of life. When nonprofits succeed, our entire county benefits. This summit is an investment in the people who dedicate their time and talents to serving others, providing opportunities to learn, build meaningful connections, and share best practices. We hope every attendee leaves with new ideas, valuable partnerships, and renewed inspiration to strengthen their organizations and create an even greater collective impact throughout our county and region.”
Join fellow nonprofit leaders, staff, board members, volunteers, funders, and community partners for a day of professional development, networking, and collaboration.
The summit will be held on Nov. 7 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. with support from the Patrick County Economic Development Authority at P&HCC – Patrick County site, 212 Wood Brothers Drive, Stuart. Find more details at https://bit.ly/pcnonprofitsummit.
