Together SC is once again thrilled to host an invitation-only luncheon for SC's corporate philanthropic professionals dedicated to driving positive change in South Carolina. 

The Luncheon will take place on March 10 at 12:30PM during the 2026 SC Nonprofit Summit Greenville at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Greenville.

The Luncheon will take place at from 12:30PM to 1:30PM in the Pergola @ Roost, located on the 2nd floor of the Hyatt lobby, directly next the restaurant The Roost. The luncheon will focus on three primary subjects:

  1. Managing Partnerships with Nonprofits
  2. Alignment with Current Nonprofit Landscape
  3. Forecasting Changes for CSR Professionals

Registration also gives you access to the first keynote of the day with Dr. Cory Scheer, author of Closing the Trust Gap. Dr. Scheer will discuss how trust gaps emerge in workplaces and communities, and how nonprofits can help bridge them.

Luncheon attendees are also invited to join the Together SC Board of Directors for a special, invite-only, "Fireside Chat" with Dr. Cory Scheer directly following lunch to dive deeper into keynote themes.

Don't miss this opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals, gain valuable knowledge, and contribute to the ongoing efforts of fostering positive social change in South Carolina.

Reserve your spot now for a luncheon filled with inspiration, networking, and actionable strategies for corporate philanthropy and community engagement.  

This is a complimentary event Together SC is proud to host for our Corporate Allies!
