Join Funraise and AidKit in curating impactful connections between nonprofit executives.

The goal of Funraise Connects is to bring nonprofit leaders and founders together in a relaxed setting to break bread while we network, share ideas, and learn from our peers.

Funraise Connects Chicago will be hosted by Funraise CEO Justin Wheeler and joined by a special guest from AidKit.

Dinner will be followed by a roundtable discussion with AidKit and Justin.

The cost of the evening will be covered by Funraise and AidKit. Space will be limited, so if you would like to attend this complimentary dinner (and open bar!), please register as soon as possible.

AidKit is the aid infrastructure that helps nonprofits and government agencies deliver fast, fair, and effective programs—ready before disaster strikes, not built in the middle of one. When hurricanes, wildfires, or flooding disrupt communities, AidKit partners can move from program design to cash in recipients' hands in a matter of days. The platform handles the full workflow—applications, eligibility verification, fraud mitigation, and payments—so organizations can focus on the people who need help, not the process. AidKit has supported over 240 partners across 27 states, distributing more than $425 million in aid to date.
