Partnership YeS Luncheon

This annual event is an opportunity to connect, learn, and be inspired. To think broadly and boldly about new ways to work together to increase nonprofits’ collective impact.

On October 8, 2025, we celebrate the resiliency and accomplishments of Bucks County’s non-profit community and recognize select grant and award recipients. FCP proudly focuses its grantmaking on Bucks County and is committed to strengthening the non-profit sector. We believe that when nonprofits join forces, we are better able to address community needs and ensure that Bucks County is a vibrant and viable place to live and work.

This invitation-only event featured keynote speaker David Rhode, the award winning author of “Passion Isn’t Enough: A Practical Guide for Nonprofit Leaders.” In 2005, he founded, led, and scaled Pitch In For Baseball and Softball, a nonprofit that increased access to baseball and softball for children in under-resourced communities through the donation of equipment and uniforms. After leaving the organization in 2019, David founded Dot Dot Org, a non-profit consulting firm focusing on CEO mentoring. He also teaches Nonprofit Branding and Nonprofit Consulting at the University of Pennsylvania and is the Deputy Director at PennPAC, an organization that mobilizes pro bono teams of University of Pennsylvania alumni as consultants to strengthen the nonprofit sector.
