Illuminate 2025

Kjipuktuk | Halifax, May 27 to 29, 2025

We will come together at the Halifax Convention Centre to build on the energy and opportunities seeded at RECONNECT 2023. With inspirational speakers, such as Peace by Chocolate founder Tareq Hadhad, and sessions that align with current philanthropic priorities, such as Empowering Nonprofits through AI and Emerging Tech, Illuminate 2025 will be a space to learn from each other and develop skills to better serve our communities.

Our biennial, bilingual conference invites community foundations, nonprofit leaders, and partners to gather for shared learning and collaboration. Illuminate 2025 will include:

  • Learning sessions designed to explore and refine practices together,
  • Spaces to deepen relationships that support our work, and
  • Collective gatherings to embrace similarities and differences, and build shared understanding

Prepare to ignite your curiosity. Here is a first look at the dynamic sessions coming your way:
