About the U.P. Nonprofit Conference

Powerful Missions – Profound Results
The mission-driven your organizations is as important as ever as our world, our country, our state and the U.P. work toward a healthier economy. There is evidence that we are through the worst of the recession – stocks show signs of rally, retail sales have risen, unemployment rates have leveled and are beginning to drop bit by bit. But we’re not out of the woods yet. Now comes a different kind of tough time – nonprofit and youth-serving organizations must persevere through the challenging climb to a strong economy. Many people, families and organizations in our communities are still in or on the brink of being in dire situations. As organizations passionate about filling these gaps, it is critical we continue to fuel our missions, focus our work and help deliver the powerful and life-changing results our communities still need. The economic downturn resulted in a lot of cutbacks and closures, but for many, the passion that fuels our missions kept us afloat – we are in it for the long haul. Join us at the 6th Annual U.P. Nonprofit Conference for a day set aside to learn and talk with others about what keeps our passions alive and moves us into the new environment that is taking shape.
