What a great start to our Brunch, Listen, and Action Social Events! CTCO's social events are held with community leaders, parents, friends, and other non-profit organizations to allow individuals the opportunities to voice their concerns, initiatives, and ideas, while we brunch, listen, and collectively put action to what is needed within our communities. Here is a snippet from our "Candy Confessional" activity. What can we do as a community to help our underprivileged and at-risk youth? Nikita McCaskill, Ed.D.

Small arts organizations employ some of the most passionate individuals out there! Empowering your people by fostering that passion can make big things happen. In April of 2022, our founder and CEO took part in a panel discussion hosted by the Columbus Arts Marketing Association called "Changing the Narrative: Can Radical Thinking Shape the Future of Nonprofits?" You can find the entire discussion on YouTube (link in the comments!) #artsmarketing #artsadmin #nonprofitarts

Happy National Nonprofit Day from the team at AegleWealth!

If you're looking for a good cause to support for Amplify Austin today, please consider donating to the United Way of Greater Austin! One of the pivotal goals of their work is their focus on high-quality early care and education. The first five years of every person’s life are foundational. Studies show that a child’s experiences during those early years literally build the architecture of their brain. Every $1 invested in early childhood education results in a $7 return-on-investment that benefits: - Local families, whose focus and trust lies in their children receiving high-quality care and support while they are working, - Our local economy, because it thrives with the talents of parents in the workforce, and  - Our community, because children are tomorrow’s workforce and leaders. Supporting early childhood education strengthens our region into one where everyone can thrive. Donate now and make that vision a reality. https://lnkd.in/gZGmXfnv

With #MLKDayofService fast approaching, it’s important to evaluate how we reframe #equity in days of service. My latest article for Forbes Nonprofit Council has six questions you should ask as you plan days of service, both for #MLKDay and throughout the year.

It is a tremendous honor to be a part of this effort. If you are not a member of the Nonprofit Executive Alliance but you are a business or nonprofit leader, or an elected official, and would like to participate, please let me know. Next month, in partnership with Broward County Government, the Coordinating Council of Broward, Nonprofit Executive Alliance, Community Foundation of Broward and the American Jewish Committee (AJC) we will be co-hosting three workshops on Anti-Semitism. These workshops are geared to nonprofit and business leaders as well as elected officials.  Not only is this issue deeply personal to me but Broward County has one of the largest populations of Jews in the world and it's one of the fastest growing populations in our community.  Antisemitism in America is rising, becoming more commonplace and more violent. Ranging from threatening Jewish people on the streets to a constant barrage of online hate—it impacts your staff, board, volunteers, those you serve, their families, and our entire community. Recognizing that antisemitism poses a threat to democracy, the White House recently released the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, which adopts a “whole-of-society” approach to addressing antisemitism in America. Based on AJC’s comprehensive Call to Action Against Antisemitism, the National Strategy provides concrete examples of what businesses can do to stem the tide, such as including antisemitism awareness and training in diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) curricula. It also calls on employers to educate andshare information about Jewish American heritage, culture, and history. American leadership—from public, private, and nonprofit sectors—has a critical role to play in fighting all forms of hatred, including antisemitism. That fight begins with understanding the problem, learning about the diversity of the Jewish community, and empowering people to speak out. Please reach out if you would like to learn more.
