This year's summit theme, Creating Common Ground, is inspired by the powerful words of Martin Luther King Jr.:

"A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus."

The 2025 SC Nonprofit Summit is designed to empower the nonprofit and philanthropic sector to create common ground around the pressing issues impacting our communities and our state.
