Anniversary Happy Hour | ComNetworkPDX + Philanthropy Northwest
About this Event
Come celebrate the 50th anniversary of a regional institution and outstanding philanthropic partner. Philanthropy Northwest is turning 50 this year, and we're marking the milestone by cohosting a happy hour at Hey Love Superette, in the Jupiter NEXT lobby.
As always, this is the space where for-cause communicators can find connection and support. You'll also find some celebratory bites and delicious drinks, thanks in large part to Philanthropy Northwest. So help us show up and show out for this once-in-a-century celebration.
Bring a friend and make a few new ones. We're looking forward to seeing you!
Who's Hosting
ComNetwork PDX is the local chapter of the Communications Network, an organization that connects, gathers, and informs strategic communications professionals working to advance social good. If you're doing this work in the Portland metro region, you've found your people.
For 50 years, Philanthropy Northwest has brought philanthropic leaders together to learn, challenge assumptions and expand what’s possible. What began as a place for connection has transformed into a home base for collective action towards equitable, community-centered philanthropy across our region.
