BC Nonprofit Leadership Conference Volunteers

Vantage Point’s annual conference is an event designed to provide non-profit leaders with
renewed energy and confidence through learning, connection, and dialogue.
Consistent with past years, we envision participants coming away from this conference feeling supported and inspired by the leadership of our sector. The 2025 BC Non-Profit Leadership Conference theme will centre on meaningful storytelling to communicate all our impactful work. We’ll also focus on building more connected partnerships and communities across our province, leading to a stronger collective voice and even greater stories for us to tell. Through conversation, learning, collaboration, and coordinated efforts, we hope to enhance the significant and exceptional role non-profits play in our world.

Logistics
The conference will be held both online and in person at the Anvil Centre located on the
traditional and unceded land of the Halkomelem speaking people in New Westminster, BC!
