The Troy Chamber of Commerce and its Non-Profit Network (NPN) will host the 12th Annual Nonprofit Management Conference, presented by PNC Bank on Thursday, May 18, 8 a.m.–3:10 p.m., at Walsh College, Troy campus (3838 Livernois). This affordable management conference for nonprofit professionals, board members and volunteers is sponsored by PNC Bank, Walsh College and the Troy Chamber of Commerce. “Providing affordable training for nonprofits is always at the top of the list of goals and objectives for the NonProfit Network,” said Jody House, Troy Chamber vice president and NPN staff liaison.

“It’s important for nonprofits to keep current on best practices,” says House. “Over the course of the 11-year history of this conference, the Troy Chamber has provided low-cost training and networking opportunities to more than 1,000 nonprofit professionals from all over southeast Michigan, including executive directors, program managers, fund development specialists, board members and volunteers.”

The day begins with a continental breakfast and networking followed by two breakout sessions, lunch, and two afternoon sessions. Throughout the day, there will be a mini-expo with exhibitors showcasing products and services to help nonprofits operate their organizations better and more efficiently.

At each breakout session, attendees choose one of four sessions with topics covering seven core areas of nonprofit management: Governance/Operations, Marketing, Technology, Human Resources/Volunteers/Staff, Fund Development/Donor Relations, Leadership/Board Development, and Finance/Accounting. The cost for the day-long event, meals included, is $60 for Troy Chamber members and $110 for non-members. Two or more attendees from the same non-member organization will receive a $10 discount per person. Space is limited and reservations must be made in advance.
