2021 Virtual Conference

MNA's 2021 Conference will take place virtually, and if possible, include in-person gathering, September 27th - October 1st.

2020 Virtual Conference

Our 2020 conference, RESOLVE, took place everywhere! That’s right, MNA went virtual. With all of Montana’s health and safety in mind, we transformed the conference into an energetic digital experience. For the first time ever, our conference attendees (nearly 2,000 of them - a record for MNA) gained access to all sessions to watch live or later - over 40 hours of curated content. Also for the first time, we offered a Whole Org Registration with no limit on attendees so everyone from interns to board members from one organization had the opportunity to learn and grow together. And that's how we RESOLVE.

2019 Conference

2019 was the year to make a BREAKTHROUGH! Our Conference inspired more than 400 participants to imagine a world where individuals, organizations, and communities have realized their full potential as leaders, supporters, and champions for the missions that shape Montana and empowered to BREAKTHROUGH on every level.

2018 Conference

Our 2018 Conference theme was Catalyst: Ignite Your Strengths for the Common Good. Together we explored how tenacious leadership, valuing and investing in people, and building a resilient organizational culture are the fuel we need to be effective in challenging times.

2017 Conference

Go Further Together: In 2017, we celebrated the transformation that takes place when we join forces for impact, and asks us to reflect on our individual power and responsibility to foster relationships and communities that move the common good forward.

Together, we showcased a combination of individuals and organizations that embody the spirit of philanthropy and nonprofit leadership in Montana.
