Charleston County Community Development and Revitalization, in partnership with South Carolina Association for Community Economic Development (SCACED) and Increasing H.O.P.E., will host the Powered by Purpose Conference on Tuesday, August 19 and Wednesday, August 20.
The free-to-attend conference is designed to strengthen and support Charleston County’s nonprofit sector by offering resources, connections, and capacity-building strategies tailored to local needs.
Topics covered throughout the conference will center on strengthening organizational capacity, deepening community engagement, and navigating the funding and policy landscape.

Qualified organizations will receive up to two in-person attendance passes, post-conference technical assistance tailored to organizational needs, two individual 1-year all access subscriptions to the Nonprofit Learning Lab (includes hundreds of self-paced education modules), free event parking, and free meals during the event.
