CEO Retreat

PFC’s next CEO Retreat will take place from Tuesday, May 20 to Thursday, May 22, 2025, in Whistler, BC at the Nita Lake Lodge Resort & Spa!

The CEO Retreat is an annual in-person gathering and community of peers for PFC member CEOs (or equivalent title), to discuss key issues and important developments in the sector in an informal but facilitated format.

Discussion topics are selected by the members and include a range of issues of interest and concerns across the leadership in the philanthropic community in Canada, and the retreat is held in a different part of the country each year.

In recent years, the retreat has taken place in Alton, Ontario (May 13-15, 2024), Banff, Alberta (May 1-3, 2023), Wakefield, Quebec (May 9-10, 2022).
