Sports Philanthropy World Coming Up Quick

We are excited that Sports Philanthropy World is going to open registration this week for our immersive, interactive conference. Though we are disappointed in not being able to gather in person and make all of the terrific personal connections as we did at Sports Philanthropy World 2019, we know that a virtual event will allow our friends around the globe to join in our conference. In 2019, we had organizations in 87 countries inquiring about participating in our event.

We have an exciting event planned with an array of keynotes, panels, special interest tracks, sessions, workshops and task force meetings. We look forward to having you join and participate with our community.

In case you missed our Sports Philanthropy Town Hall on Racism, Tolerance and Reform on July 1st, you can now watch the videos! Please make sure to take our survey after you watch the videos!!

LET ME WATCH THE VIDEOS AND SEE OUTSTANDING SPEAKERS!!

You can see the graphics for the panels and speakers who participated in our event.

REPORT ON STATEMENTS ABOUT RACISM

In addition to the Town Hall meeting, we also released our comprehensive report which compiles all of the statements teams, leagues and sports organizations made about their efforts to condemn racism and their actions to combat racism.

Our goal is to spotlight those commitments, as well as find a way to track how well these organizations were able to follow through on their promises. We hope all of you will support and encourage organizations in your community to live up to the commitments.

We encourage you to give generously to allow us to work to make meaningful change and to support the many organizations that are doing terrific work in this space. Please click below to make your donation
