You work hard to create compelling and impactful messages that develop your organization and meet your mission. That's why the Philly Awards celebrate outstanding achievements in nonprofit marketing, communications, and fundraising.

We invite you to join us for the 21sh Annual Philly Awards with a two-day celebration we like to call Phillys Week!

Nonprofit Connect will recognize each Philly Award winner during a virtual award presentation. Then, raise a glass with all of your fellow nonprofit professionals at an in-person reception where we will announce our 2024 Community Champions along with our Best In-House and Best In Class winners.
