Keynote Speaker

I empower artists and future nonprofit leaders to access the funds they need to make their big ideas happen!

 Discover how to turn your creative passion into a sustainable career with the power of philanthropic funding. This keynote will explore actionable strategies for artists to access grants, secure donor support, and build partnerships that fuel their projects.  

 Starting a nonprofit can be daunting, with long waits for tax-exempt status and high overhead costs threatening early success. This keynote explores why fiscal sponsorship is a smarter, more efficient path for aspiring changemakers. Learn how fiscal sponsors streamline compliance, reduce administrative burdens, and maximize funds for program impact. We'll also address the myth of "overhead" and why funders should embrace this model as a cost-effective solution to drive sustainable, impactful change.
