Chapter Annual Membership Meeting, 2025
"Non-Profit Partnerships: Collaborative Solutions for Complex Challenges"
In today’s world, where the challenges facing our communities are increasingly complex and interconnected, partnerships within the non-profit sector have never been more essential. By working together, organizations can leverage their unique strengths, share resources, and develop innovative solutions that make a measurable impact. These partnerships break down silos, inspire collaboration, and create a unified approach to tackling issues like food insecurity, homelessness, and poverty. For non-profits, the power to move the needle truly lies in collaboration—working collectively to make progress that no one organization could achieve alone.
Join us for the AFP - NYC Chapter Annual Meeting to hear from some of the leading voices in New York City who are addressing food insecurity. Our panel features Leslie Gordon, President and CEO of the Food Bank For New York City; Jilly Stephens, CEO of City Harvest; and Grace Bonilla, President and CEO of United Way of New York—three visionary leaders who have come together to form the Consortium, a groundbreaking partnership dedicated to addressing food insecurity across New York City. Moderated by the Consortium’s Chief Transformation Officer, Coleen Curry, this panel will provide valuable insights into how these organizations are working collectively to ensure that every New Yorker has access to essential food and support.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from these experts and discover how, together, we can all contribute to a more equitable future.
We'll also celebrate the presentation of the prestigious Ralph E. Chamberlain Award to Gregory Boroff, Chief External Relations Officer of City Harvest and hear inspiring remarks from our Chapter President, Craig Shelley.
This event promises to kick off 2025 with a renewed sense of purpose, encouraging us to discover how, together, we can make a meaningful difference.
