“Sold Out” sessions for NFP Summit

There was an overwhelming response from Victorian not-for-profit community sector organisations this year, for the Office for the Community Sector's Annual NFP Summit.

More than 350 NFPs gathered at Geelong's Simonds Stadium on 18 October, for the NFP Summit ‘Change – Challenge & Choice’.

By popular demand, the CEO of the UK's Directory of Social Change Debra Allcock-Tyler returned as keynote speaker. Debra also featured at the 2010 NFP Summit.

Summit delegates also heard from corporate high-flyer turned social entrepreneur Simon Griffiths, participated in a range of practical capacity-building workshops, and received a pack of new resources from the OCS to support them in their vital work across Victorian communities.
