What small changes can be game-changers for my P2P program?
Blue Sea Philanthropy’s Brian Carney will share insights into initiatives that helped make their Coldest Night Of The Year series one of Canada’s fastest-growing programs of the last two years and facilitate small group discussions for peer sharing.
