Partners for Good (PFG) is a networking and professional development group for local nonprofit leaders hosted by the Vadnais Heights Economic Development Corporation (VHEDC). PFG has been meeting for eight years, building strong social and professional connections for nonprofit leaders in the northeast metro.
We bring topic experts to our Lunch and Learn events, and encourage participants to learn from each other at our Coffee Talks. Nonprofit leaders are also invited to attend the VHEDC HR Connections events and Mixers that build relations between the local nonprofit and business communities.
Partners for Good is meeting in person again and is looking to rebuild and grow as we head into our seventh year.
$100 Annual Organizational Fee includes:
- PFG Lunch and Learn, Coffee Talks, and social events
- HR Connections program events
- VHEDC happenings
- See attached program schedules
- We encourage participation from multiple representatives from each organization
Please extend this invitation to your nonprofit colleagues and RSVP to help us accurately reserve space and order food.
