Stronger to Serve heads to Anaheim in 2027

Wipfli will relocate its annual Stronger to Serve Conference to Anaheim, California, in 2027, marking a new chapter for one of the firm’s flagship events for nonprofit and mission-driven leaders.

After 27 years at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, the conference will move to the Anaheim Marriott, 700 W. Convention Way, and take place July 12-15, 2027. The transition reflects both the conference’s continued growth and Wipfli’s focus on expanding its reach and impact.

Since its founding in 1999, Stronger to Serve has brought together nonprofit executives, financial leaders and program professionals from across the country. The event focuses on helping organizations navigate challenges, strengthen operations and better serve their communities.

As the conference moves to Anaheim, Wipfli will expand programming to welcome a broader audience of nonprofit and association leaders. The 2027 event will introduce new educational tracks, enhanced preconference offerings and additional signature networking experiences.

“We’re grateful to Caesars Palace for being an outstanding partner and host of the Stronger to Serve Conference for the past 27 years,” said Kathleen DuBois, partner and leader of Wipfli’s nonprofit and government practice. “As we look ahead to Anaheim, we’re excited to expand the conference experience with new educational opportunities, new ways for attendees to connect and programming that reflects the evolving needs of nonprofits, government entities and educational institutions.”

The new location supports Stronger to Serve’s continued growth while maintaining its focus on delivering practical insights, peer collaboration and leadership development.

Registration is now open for the 2027 conference. Attendees can learn more and register at www.wipfli.com/stronger-to-serve. Program details, including session topics, speakers and special events, will be released in February 2027.
