As we look toward an exciting future as The Nonprofit Chamber, we also want to reflect on our history and the path that has brought us here. The roots of what is now The Nonprofit Chamber go back to the late 1990s when the need for an umbrella organization for Alberta's nonprofit and voluntary sector was first recognized. With the sector facing common challenges, it became clear that this type of organization was needed to build capacity and provide leadership on critical nonprofit policy issues across Alberta.
Subsequent discussions and community consultations led to the formation of CCVO in 2004, which was established as a membership-based organization to strengthen Calgary’s vibrant nonprofit sector and address sector-related public policy issues in Alberta.
We are incredibly proud of our history and thankful for the unwavering support of our community over the past two decades. We look forward to this new chapter and continuing our work with all of you under our new brand, The Nonprofit Chamber. Make sure that you follow our new page!
