The Summer Partner Meeting was a wonderful night of highlights and connections! Though we couldn’t gather in person it was great to see so many Partners, Investees, and community members on the call as well as some SVP’s longest supporting advocates. We are so very grateful for your commitment to SVP and the nonprofits we work with. Together we are building a better world for all. Feeling inspired? Check out the current volunteer opportunities or feel free to reach out the SVP team if you have any questions or how you want to get involved.
