The Charitable Sector Needs Not Only To Survive But Thrive – Moving Forward from the Pandemic

 

The COVID-19 crisis has severely impacted the Canadian charitable sector from providing service delivery, to implementing funding mechanisms and to its advocacy efforts. However, the pandemic also gives an opportunity for charities and nonprofits to learn from the crisis and modernize into an even stronger sector. Senator Omidvar will discuss what priorities and recommendations the charitable sector should tackle to recover from this unprecedented crisis.
