We all know the struggle of finding the people you actually want to talk to at networking events- the time and energy spent trying to connect with partners that can help advance your nonprofit’s mission. Well, what if you could skip all that and directly engage with other community engagement leaders?

Join Triad Goodwill, the Guilford Nonprofit Consortium and Guilford County Partnership for Children for a speed networking event designed for local nonprofit professionals with “community engagement” in their title or job description. This event isn’t just about swapping business cards— attendees will share organizational goals, tackle shared challenges, and build a supportive network of peers who truly understand the work you do.

What to expect:

- Hear 2-minute elevator pitches from 19 unique nonprofit organizations (+ deliver one of your own!).

- Dive into fast-paced speed networking using provided conversation starters to skip the small talk and find collaborative partners.

- Take advantage of open mingling and receive feedback to see what stood out most about your nonprofit to other attendees.

Because we want to ensure everyone has enough time to make genuine, high-quality connections, participation is limited to 20 individuals (with a max of one person per organization)— so register now! Preferred registration given to Guilford Nonprofit Consortium members.

Register now with this link: https://guilfordnonprofits.org/#!event/2026/7/15/community-engagement-professionals-speed-networking-event

Join us for an evening of networking, collaboration, and community with fellow entrepreneurs, founders, and business professionals from across the Triad. Whether you're exploring a new idea, growing a startup, or scaling an established business, this is a great opportunity to make connections, share experiences, and discover resources to help you move forward. Come as you are, bring a friend, and leave with new connections and fresh inspiration. Registration is free.
