The John McIninich Foundation is presenting a series of seminars to discuss
different issues that growing organizations face as they work to succeed.
The Foundation aims to support developing organizations by providing legal
information relevant to the organizations’ needs and connecting them with
volunteer lawyers to help them further.

The first seminar will be focused on issues that arise when working with em-
ployees and volunteers. The presentations will be focused on youth non-
profit organizations, although youth social entrepreneurs and representa-
tives of other developing non-profit organizations are welcome.

The following organizations have joined with the John McIninich Foundation
to generously sponsor this event: Social Planning Toronto, Renewal, City of Toronto, Laidlaw Foundation.
