#Nonprofits Did you know millennials’ giving motivations are tied to their strong social consciousness and how they see themselves as philanthropists? When a nonprofit has thoughtful answers for tough questions, it can both help educate a prospective donor and help foster a more personal relationship. How does your nonprofit answer these questions: 🎯 How do you measure and report on the effectiveness of your programs? Do you have any plans to change or improve your evaluation process? 🎯 What are the main obstacles that stand between you and your mission, and how do you plan to overcome them? 🎯 Do you regularly have the resources to cover your budget? Why or why not?

Hey fam! 👋🏾 In the latest episode of #OnAirWithAmberWynn, I dive into the topic of business expenses that fall under indirect costs. These include operating expenses your nonprofit needs to cover on a recurring basis to keep going—things like salaries, electricity, internet, and more. 💡💼 So, why should you care about indirect costs? 🤔 Well, many funders believe that indirect costs should be the responsibility of the nonprofit, meaning any funds they provide shouldn't be used to cover these expenses. This can create a big challenge because if you don’t have another source of funding, it could leave you unable to pay for essential operations, trapping you in a cycle of poverty mode. 💸🔄 But don’t worry—I gotchu! 💪🏾 If you want to learn how to cover your basic operating expenses, head over to my YouTube channel and watch the full episode, where I share strategies just for you. 🎥✨ Check out the link in the comments! #NonprofitLife #NonprofitSuccess #BusinessExpenses #FundraisingTips #NonprofitManagement #AmberWynn
