The 2nd Giving Conference

Dear Friends,


Come and join us at the Second Seed of Giving Conference on Friday, August 7 (9AM - 4PM) at the UJA-Federation of New York.



With the focus of Empowering Human Resource, the Second Seed of Giving Conference will provide a great opportunity to learn about how to strengthen and sustain your human resource functions.From a recent survey conducted by our foundation, we learned that Korean-American CBOs are endowed with relatively strong human resources in terms of the level of educational background and numbers. To reap the best benefits from the richly endowed human resources, we should strengthen the leadership and human resource capacity by nurturing the quality of our human resources.


The Second Seed of Giving Conference is for;

* Board of Directors who want to re-define their roles as board, and want to strengthen strategic planning, and supervising function to accomplish your mission.
* Executive Staffs who want to review their planning and executive strategies and want to tune up their working relation with their board for the success of their mission.
* Volunteer Managers who want to achieve strategic skills in recruiting, training, and continuing working relations with volunteers.



Financial Workshop on August 14 & 21 (9AM - 1PM)
@ Foundation Center, 79 Fifth Avenue, NY, NY (between 15 & 16 st)
