Speaker Highlight

Vu Le

Vu Le ("voo lay") is a writer, speaker, vegan, Pisces, and the former Executive Director of RVC, a nonprofit in Seattle that promotes social justice by developing leaders of color, strengthening organizations led by communities of color, and fostering collaboration among diverse communities. Vu's passion to make the world better, combined with a low score on the Law School Admission Test, drove him into the field of nonprofit work, where he learned that we should take the work seriously, but not ourselves. There's tons of humor in the nonprofit world, and someone needs to document it. He is going to do that, with the hope that one day, a TV producer will see how cool and interesting our field is and make a show about nonprofit work, featuring attractive actors attending strategic planning meetings and filing 990 tax forms. Known for his no-BS approach, irreverent sense of humor, and love of unicorns, Vu has been featured in dozens, if not hundreds, of his own blog posts at NonprofitAF.com.

Whether you work in philanthropy, nonprofits, or simply care about stronger communities, expect an engaging conversation. Join peers in the nonprofit sector for a talk with Vu Le, the writer behind the widely read blog Nonprofit AF and one of the nonprofit sector’s most candid voices. 

In conversation about his new book Reimagining Nonprofits and Philanthropy, Vu will explore why so many systems in the sector aren’t working, and what it would take to do things differently. With humor, honesty, and plenty of sharp observations, he’ll challenge nonprofits, funders, and sector leaders to rethink how we work together to create real change.

Registration is required, and the first 50 people to register for each event will receive a free copy of Vu’s new book!
