The 2025 DANA IMPACT Delaware Conference is a must-attend event for nonprofit leaders and their teams, designed to foster collaboration, innovation, and shared growth. In an increasingly uncertain world, nonprofits must unite to overcome challenges and enhance their collective impact. This conference offers a unique opportunity for nonprofit professionals to come together, learn from one another, and explore new ways to strengthen the communities they serve. 


Keynote Speaker: Mariah Calagione, Co-Founder, Dogfish Head  

In addition to founding Dogfish alongside husband Sam, Mariah captained Dogfish Head’s grassroots marketing, PR, and social media world and the charitable-giving arm of Dogfish Head, Beer & Benevolence. As part of the Boston Beer Company, Mariah created and led the organization’s Social Impact Team, which focused on cause-marketing for the company’s brands, the coworker volunteering program, and community engagement. 

Mariah has served on the boards of The Nature Conservancy, the University of Delaware, Rehoboth Beach Film Society, and Northfield Mount Hermon School.
