2009 Governor's Nonprofit Leadership Conference

Annually, OneStar joins the Office of the Governor to host the Governor's Nonprofit Leadership Conference (GNLC).

The 32nd annual GNLC will be held from December 9 - 10, 2009 in Dallas, TX. GNLC is the state's largest nonprofit conference, gathering volunteer managers, nonprofit professionals, state agencies and faith-based and community organizations from across Texas. The conference provides invaluable training to organizations and businesses and this year will highlight the concept and practice of social innovation.

The conference will feature internationally-recognized social entrepreneurs Robert Egger of DC Central Kitchen and Andrew Wolk of Root Cause, as well as numerous special events, networking opportunities and an innovative roster of seminars.

Among the special events at GNLC will be the 2009 Governor's Volunteer Awards, at which Governor Rick Perry will recognize this year's awardees. These awards honor some of Texas' most dedicated volunteers-including individuals, organizations, corporations and public entities-whose community service embodies the power of volunteerism and civic engagement.

Early registration for GNLC is available until October 5, 2009, through Regonline. Regular registration will be available until November 23, 2009. The discounted rate of $275 (down from $295) is available with the following code: EARLY
