Once a year CSPRC devotes a luncheon to not just one, but many interesting topics geared for non-profit professionals. Guests can pick a subject by sitting at a designated table. After the meal guests can visit other tables to ask questions regarding other topic areas. This is a perfect way to meet several non-profit subject experts while picking up bits of wisdom from an array of topics from development and marketing to leadership and management skills. Make sure to arrive a few minutes early to choose your favorite topic.

Roundtable topics will include:

  • "The Importance of Search for Non-Profits" with Mike Tomko, Scorch Agency
