Are You Ready?!
From March 21–25, we're bringing our community together for a virtual conference that will center on what it looks like to “live your PEAK.” Across the week, we’ll imagine how grantmaking can truly embody what PEAK stands for: Principles, Equity, Advocacy, and Knowledge—and leave you empowered to lead change in your organization and the sector at large.

OPENING KEYNOTE
Connecting on Equity: An honest conversation on what’s standing in the way of progress, featuring Vu Le and Amoretta Morris
As we aim to uplift and operationalize equity in the philanthropic sector, we find hesitation and slow movement to progress. Our opening keynote brings two dynamic leaders together for a candid exchange that explores that reticence and challenges us to push forward with bold and unrestrained resolve to be more equitable in our grantmaking practices.
Vu Le plies his irreverent sense of humor and direct approach to the world of nonprofit work on his blog NonprofitAF. Amoretta Morris is the president of Borealis Philanthropy.

NOLA TIME
Since we couldn't experience the great city of new Orleans in person, we pledged to infuse the PEAK2022 experience with a NOLA vibe. Get ready for NOLA time!
Throughout the week, we're creating spaces for a special series of short, inspiring presentations that highlight NOLA nonprofits and culture through music, dance, film, and spoken-word performances.
