About Xlerate

The City of Toronto acknowledges that we are on the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.

The Xlerate Story

For fundraisers and nonprofit marketers, there is a glaring gap in the conference marketplace. Many conferences exist, but none focused on marketing in a digital omni-channel age.

We decided to do something about it.

Xlerate is a coalition of nonprofit marketers, fundraisers and agency professionals who are committed to advancing digital and omni-channel marketing for nonprofits and charities. Enabled through the strength and value of our coalition of members and partners, we provide a hub for networking, discussing best practices, and sharing information and resources to advance leadership in integrated marketing.

Our mission is simple.

We want to inspire and educate new leaders in digital and omni-channel marketing for the nonprofit sector by creating community spaces for conversation, innovation and learning.

Our conference experience will be like no other.

We’re building the conference we always wish we could attend. Our vision is to host events across Canada, and eventually North America.

  • Community-focused conferences
  • Carefully curated educational experiences
  • Affordable professional development
  • Fun, relaxed atmosphere that inspires creativity
  • Unique networking opportunities

Xlerate Day features multiple sessions such as — Leadership, Data, Campaigning and Stepping Up — focused on the latest trends, best practices and actionable insights.

Really, we want to push limits.

  • We push limits of people’s thinking by creating innovative spaces to learn, create and share. We push limits of what’s possible for marketing success through integration.
  • We push limits of what nonprofits can do with lean resources and budgets.
  • We push limits through innovative partnerships that benefit the sector.
