Partnership Project Update
It's been a busy summer for The Partnership Project. Since May, my co-chair, Dr. Eric Hoskins, Minister of Citizenship and Immigration, and I have been meeting with senior leaders from not-for-profit organizations across Ontario.
We have met with not-for-profit organizations in Toronto, Thunder Bay, Niagara Region, Sudbury, Mississauga, Minden and London. We will be in Newmarket and Ottawa later this month.
We have learned a lot about this sector -- its strengths, its challenges, and its central role in building and sustaining communities. We have also heard many thoughtful ideas about how to enhance the relationship between the public sector and the not-for-profit sector.
We want to engage as many people from the not-for-profit sector as possible in this important conversation. So for those of you who will not be able to participate in one of our in-person roundtables, we invite you to join our conversation online. You can do that by:
- signing up to receive highlights of our regional consultations and other updates of our work
- hosting your own roundtable within your organization or community - DIY Roundtable
- sending us your private thoughts on a confidential basis though our tete-a-tete feature, or- uploading a submission or research paper.
Thank you for caring about and supporting the not-for-profit sector -- whether you're a volunteer, a paid service provider, or a donor. Your support matters, and our communities are stronger because of your involvement.
If you have any questions about The Partnership Project, please don't hesitate to email me: HBurstyn@trilliumfoundation.org or contact Karen Rosen, Special Advisor, The Partnership Project at krosen@trilliumfoundation.org .
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas.
Helen Burstyn | Chair, Ontario Trillium Foundation
