About this event
Everyone can make a difference in their community when they share and give their time, skills, services, and goods to local organizations meeting local needs. With this in mind, Project In-Kind and Algonquin College are excited to collaborate on the inaugural Project In-Kind Impact Summit on Thursday, June 3, 9am-3pm.
The Summit will:
- Spotlight the stories of campus and community leaders making a difference.
- Teach and share skills to help participants take action wherever they are.
- Provide opportunities to learn more about the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the incredible organizations and people taking action to build a better world for us.
You do not need to be a millionaire to be a philanthropist and change-maker. Join us at the Summit to learn more and find out how you can make a difference in your local and global communities. Attend the whole day, or sessions that suit your interests and schedule.
The Summit is free and open to Algonquin College students, employees, and members of the public.
This event is brought to you by the following partners and sponsors: AC Hub, Office of Applied Research, Innovation & Entrepreneurship, SLiDE, Canadian Commission for UNESCO, and Employment and Social Development Canada (SDGs Unit).
