We know the nonprofit world wasn’t built for true liberation – but our relationships can be. This gathering is a chance to remember that solidarity is not a theory, it’s an embodied practice of listening, sharing risk, and weaving the everyday miracles of care that keep our people alive. Through story, network mapping, and embodied practice, we’ll explore how to build networks rooted in trust, reciprocity, and shared purpose — moving beyond charity into collective power.
