About the Summit
A one-day leadership summit for Galveston's nonprofit community.
Boards by the Bay is a one-day leadership summit designed exclusively for nonprofit board members, executive directors, emerging leaders, community volunteers, foundations, and corporate partners who are committed to making Galveston County stronger.
Hosted by Happy Town Community Galveston, this inaugural event brings together local leaders for a day of learning, collaboration, and relationship building. Unlike traditional conferences that focus on theory, Boards by the Bay is designed to provide practical tools, real-world examples, and meaningful connections that participants can immediately take back to their organizations.
What to Expect
Who should attend? Boards by the Bay welcomes anyone invested in stronger boards and stronger community outcomes: nonprofit staff, board members, community leaders, and those seeking greater organizational impact.
