BRADDOCK, Oct. 17 – State Rep. Abigail Salisbury will host the second annual Nonprofit Symposium from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 30 at the Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers Local 9 PA, 100 Kingston Drive, Pittsburgh.

Salisbury said the free event will be a critical resource for Pennsylvania nonprofit groups of all kinds that are working to maximize funding and further their mission.

“Nonprofit groups and the work they do – whether it’s fighting hunger, easing homelessness, promoting mental health or connecting residents with other essential services – make a huge impact, and everything we do to support them strengthens their outreach.

“Last year’s symposium was a huge success, and I’m even more excited for this year’s event, because we have added new topics and speakers to help these groups succeed. Getting everyone together in the same room to network and share strategies – all with the same mission of empowering residents and helping their community – brings a special energy to this event.”

Salisbury said the symposium will feature:

  • A grant workshop and tips for tapping into state funding.
  • A free copy of the latest state grant directory.
  • A board development workshop.
  • Strategies for advocating with elected officials.
  • Updates on nonprofit law developments.
  • Ideas on how to obtain real estate to further a group’s mission – and more.

Lunch will be provided.
