Gotta be my favourite event of the year. So glad this is in person #afpcalgary #afp @ Fairmont Palliser Hotel https://t.co/IvfAdNacCH
Join us next week as we bring you a great virtual event and celebrate 25 years of National Philanthropy Day in Calgary. #npdyyc2021 #afp #afpcalgary #media #yyc #nonprofit #community
Working in Philanthropy allows me to help others see their hearts desires manifest into the positive impact they can witness in their community.

@jandameryYYC impressed with your vision, clarity and tenacity during tonight’s #AFPCalgary Mayoralty forum.
That's a wrap everyone! Thanks to AFP Calgary for hosting.
Hope you gained some insight into the candidates and we get rolling on this municipal election journey!
Story will follow. Have a super night. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #yycvote #afpcalgary
“We will ensure the funding gets to the folks who need it, investing in the causes that are near and dear, which keep OUR communities thriving”
- Councillor @JyotiGondek

Zane Novak: Calgary needs to define its identity.
10-15 years ago - O&G hub of Canada.
That's changed. We need a new identity. Reflecting the people living here today and the residents we want to attract. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #yycvote #afpcalgary
Brad Field: Must come together and consult with people affected the most. First response, CAs and non-profits.
Density specific: Must talk about social infrastructure along with brick and mortar. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
Damery wants to take away barriers - including limiting operating funding, so they can manage the complexity of the work. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary yycvote
She said there are "hoops" and conditions the city has placed on these groups and Damery said she would put together a partnership framework that frees up organizations. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
Q3: There are 17 civic partners, how will you support and fund these organizations?
Jan Damery: In her experience with YWCA, there are some handcuffs in working with the city. Building stronger partnerships is key. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
Councillor @JyotiGondek says that our path forward needs to see us transform Downtown from being a space where you work and leave, to being a thriving community all day everyday, where you and your families live, work, and play.
#yyc #yyccc #abpoli #calgary #afpcalgary #afpvotes
... for that to work, you need to make sure all of the stakeholders are at the table when making decisions.
Eliminate the bureaucracy for holding events and to do business in Calgary. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
Q2: If elected, what framework to include non-profits and charity to work as contributors to the economy.
Brad Field: Must first recognize that they are a part of the economy. They provide jobs, buy products and services. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
Jyoti Gondek: Collaboration is key to moving the city forward.
"The greatest lessons I've learned are from listening to the lived experiences of folks that we help in the social services sector," she said. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
Damery: "I'm running for mayor, because we need a fresh perspective... We need a leader who can inspire and bring people together to take action."
She said being part of council right now means you're part of the problem, not the solution. #yyc #yyccc #yycvote #afpcalgary
It's about to get underway and they will begin by introducing the candidates.
It's not a debate-style event. It's more of a vision and Q&A event.
My role is to provide the succinct version via Twitter (not a running play-by-play). #yyc #yyccc #calgary #yycvote #afpcalgary
@LiveWireCalgary The topics will include:
- Homelessness
- Mental health and addictions
- Funding civic partners
- Non-profits and the economy
- Infrastructure
- Downtown
- Density
- Sense of city
#yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
I will note, this is a virtual, ticketed event. I'll be livetweeting and eventually the video will be made available through AFP and @LiveWireCalgary.
Qs come from philanthropists, non-prof EDs and fundraisers. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
Before we get right into it - here's who AFP Calgary is: https://t.co/7WYnikuqxy
In short, they provide a network for fundraising professionals in Calgary.
They work with non-profits, philanthropists, social agencies and other groups. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #afpcalgary #yycvote
