Community Giving Foundation and First Community Foundation Partnership of Pennsylvania (FCFP) are thrilled to partner together once again to host Elevate2, a regional nonprofit conference designed to support and strengthen nonprofit leadership in the Susquehanna Valley. The conference will be held May 19-20, 2026, at Bucknell University in Lewisburg. Elevate2 will serve as a platform for learning, networking, and sharing experiences as nonprofit work is elevated and community impact is amplified.
Elevate2 is open to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations serving Columbia, Lower-Luzerne, Lycoming, Montour, Northumberland, Snyder, and Union Counties. Now in its second iteration, the conference will build on the success of its inaugural event with expanded content focused on leadership, fundraising, marketing, grantmaking, board governance, organizational strategy, and community impact.
Over two days, regional and national speakers will lead workshops, breakout sessions, and networking opportunities. The conference is designed to deliver practical tools, relevant insights, and meaningful connections that help nonprofit staff and volunteers navigate both the challenges and opportunities present in today’s sector.
Registration for Elevate2 opens December 1, 2025, with attendance limited to two individuals per organization and an overall capacity of 200 participants. Tickets can be purchased online here. Additional details, including session descriptions and speaker announcement, will be shared in early 2026.
