2024 Volunteer Leadership Summit
In coordination with our Expect Greater campaign closing celebration, we are hosting our Volunteer Leadership Summit on the same day from 9:30am to 2:00pm at the UC Davis Conference Center. This special networking event will gather our leadership volunteers from our various advisory boards at both the Davis campus and at UC Davis Health.
The summit will provide a forum for strategic discussion on the future of your roles as philanthropic ambassadors beyond the Expect Greater campaign. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with other volunteer leaders to celebrate our achievements and establish a strong foundation of knowledge about UC Davis and the greater future we are building together.
