For starters, it is now called Dreamforce To You 2020. Additionally, Dreamforce is usually a few days long, but not this year. This year Dreamforce is continuing into an undisclosed date in December! We are going to have the keynote speakers, special guest speakers, sessions and workshops, giving back opportunities, getting to connect with our Trailblazers and so much more.

Also on Thursday we have 2 other events! At 12pm (PST) the Bellingham, WA Nonprofit User group is hosting Bellingham Nonprofit Admin Virtual Meet-up. The topic for this meeting is for end of the year fundraising, some show and tell and a check in on their members. You’re also going to get a quick tour of the Homekeeper app. As they say in the description of this meeting, even if you aren’t tracking similar program management data, it’s still insightful on how others do!
It’s Education Week this week and that’s how this week is wrapping up! Starting at 2pm (EST) leaders from Oakland USD, Madera USD, Harvard GSE and Salesforce will talk about how to operationalize equity and collaboration across your school district inHow to Operationalize Equity with Holistic Student Support.
