Mission Forward

Madison Nonprofit Day and the Social Good Accelerator were started by Alnisa to help build skills and connection among staff and volunteers.

We incorporate play into our retreats and small group work because it helps unlock creative and innovative ideas. "...A quick walk, a playful question during meetings, or even a five-minute mindfulness exercise can help shift their brains into a more relaxed state, opening the door to innovative thinking" https://lnkd.in/eT_dvwEy

So excited to be working with Dr. Semline Singleton and Haiti Allies! I invite you to follow Haiti Allies, and learn more about how we are supporting the students at the Community School of Cite Soliel. “I love Haiti, and this is what I want to do with my life,” said Dr. Singleton. I feel incredibly lucky to be working with her and the wonderful volunteers and Haitian partners.

Attendees called Jeff Burkhart’s Data+Story=Impact session at this year’s California Library Literacy Services conference inspiring and practical. One participant listed "optimism and positivity" as a highlight. Another added "Jeff's experiences are very inspiring." The ready-to-use tools were appreciated, making the session a highlight of the conference for several of the 40+ attendees. "So much great information!! Learned great ways to tell a story," said one attendee. Another participant stated, "Very direct practical ways that the information can be used. Very inspiring presentation.” Attendees valued the practical templates and structured methods. The “real, applicable examples” and “ready-to-use tools," emphasize the session's focus on providing tangible resources that can easily be turned into action. "Excellent presentation. The templates will be so helpful," commented one participant. Another added, "There were many inspiring examples and a great outline of how I would produce something similar."
