Social Innovator Forum.

Of positive change. Of growth. Of purpose

The Social Innovation Forum (SIF) connects funders and nonprofits focused on growing social impact; with a mission to create positive social change in Greater Boston by engaging leaders, strengthening organizations, and building networks. 

Their approach is to educate funders, support nonprofit leaders, and build partnerships which leads to events such as the 2023 Social Innovator Showcase. We were thrilled to be one of the eight dynamic nonprofit presenters; and of course, our representative was our amazing Executive Director, Zaida Ismatul Oliva. She presented on one of the region’s most challenging social issues – Advancing Holistic Education Opportunities for Youth and Young Adults and our track partner was Wellington Management Foundation. 

There was an audience of 300 foundation leaders, donors, next-gen donors, and community leaders. We are happy to have had the opportunity to speak and network with others before and after the speaking program and amplifying what we do and who we are!

We must say, our Executive Director presented a brilliant pitch! To view snippets, you can visit our Instagram post. A huge shout out and thank you to The Social Innovation Forum and their partners for having us and allowing us to share in this amazing showcase event! We are delighted to have been given the opportunity to present chica project’s work! Thank you also to everyone who came out to support our mission! The vibe was immaculate.

As SIF approaches their 20th anniversary, they remain committed to mobilizing resources and connections that allow impactful social change to flourish! We look forward to chica project and SIF’s continuous bloom!
