Loudoun Nonprofit & Business Forum:
Aligning Solutions for Community Challenges
Join the Loudoun Chamber’s third annual Nonprofit & Business Forum for a deeper look at how partnerships across sectors are shaping solutions to some of the most pressing challenges facing our community.
The program will open with a keynote address from Loudoun Board of Supervisors Chair Phyllis Randall, a longtime advocate for Loudoun’s nonprofit community. Chair Randall will share insights on the County’s evolving role in supporting nonprofit organizations and strengthening cross-sector partnerships.
The event will continue with two dynamic panel discussions exploring the interconnected challenges of food access, housing, and workforce development and how these issues affect not only those directly served, but the broader Loudoun community.
Our first panel, featuring leaders from organizations on the front lines of this work, will examine how these challenges intersect, what trends are emerging, and what solutions are gaining traction locally.

- Dani Colón, Shelter House, Inc.
- Jennifer Montgomery, Loudoun Hunger Relief
- Dorri O’Brien, Inova Loudoun Hospital
- Carol Smith, Crossroads Jobs, Inc.
The second panel will shift the conversation toward the role of cross-sector collaboration, highlighting innovative approaches to drive impact and how organizations can work together more effectively to drive meaningful impact.
