The summit brought together nonprofit, government, and corporate professionals in volunteerism and service for three days of inspiration, connection, and professional growth — and none of it would have been possible without the generous support of this year's sponsors and exhibitors.
AL!VE extends its deepest gratitude to each organization that invested in this historic event and, in doing so, demonstrated a shared commitment to elevating the field of volunteer engagement nationwide.
GivePulse served as the summit's Platinum Sponsor, providing foundational support that was instrumental in bringing this first-of-its-kind gathering to life. The Susan J. Ellis Foundation proudly sponsored at the Silver level, honoring the enduring legacy of one of volunteerism's most beloved champions. CERVIS contributed as a Bronze Sponsor, reflecting the company's ongoing dedication to equipping volunteer leaders with the tools and resources they need to thrive. Volunteero sponsored at the Copper level, and Vome Volunteer and Independent Sector provided vital Supporting-level sponsorship — both helping to ensure the summit was an accessible and enriching experience for attendees from across the country.
The summit also welcomed a dynamic group of exhibitors — America's Service Commissions, Better Impact, CERVIS, GivePulse, groupwrk.ai, and Volunteero — whose presence on the exhibit floor gave attendees direct access to some of the most innovative products and services available in the field today.
Together, these organizations sent a powerful message: that volunteer engagement is a profession worthy of celebration, investment, and the very best resources our field has to offer. AL!VE is deeply grateful for their partnership and looks forward to continuing to grow alongside them in the years ahead.
