Today’s nonprofits are facing unique challenges– from funding cuts to societal shifts – that impact everything from strategic positioning to donor engagement.

The 9th Annual PRSA Dallas Nonprofit Workshop offers area professionals an opportunity to gather valuable information, expert guidance and helpful tips to navigate these current challenges and unlock long-term impact.

This year’s event, scheduled for August 1 at the Scottish Rite for Children Auditorium, will feature nonprofit leaders and communications experts on engaging the next generation of donors, leveraging generative AI, and working smarter to amplify mission impact. In addition, this workshop will help nonprofits get ready for the year-end giving season and North Texas Giving Day. 

PRSA Dallas is proud to donate a portion of the net proceeds of the event to one lucky nonprofit. The winning nonprofit will be randomly selected from paid attendees present on the day of the workshop.

Limited fee exemptions are available to attend the workshop. To request a fee exemption, please email [email protected]. Use subject line, “PRSA Nonprofit Workshop Fee Waiver.”

Nonprofit communicators, join us for an impactful half-day of collaborative conversations and idea sharing. In addition to an expert speaker lineup, the workshop offers a unique opportunity to meet and network with industry colleagues facing the same challenges as you.
