Ready for that annual report? I know, it can be daunting. Let's talk about what is actually needed inside of this important document. ❇️ What's Inside Counts: Detailed financials and achievements or milestones are crucial aspects. It shows exactly what you've done over the past year. You want to ensure this resonates with your donors, volunteers, and the communities you serve. ❇️ Print and Digital: Print is the traditional format (which I specialize in 😉) and digital allows for interactive elements like videos and interactive graphics. Whether it’s a beautifully crafted paper report or a digital presentation, each format offers unique advantages. ❇️ Engage and Inspire: Highlight your nonprofit's transparency, showcase real stories of how contributions have been used, and show future plans. Your report should not only inform but also inspire action and build trust. Let's collaborate and create an annual report that not only meets compliance but captures the heart of your mission!

What you offer to your community that other orgs don’t 3. How you describe your work to someone who’s never heard of you We need to be spending more time on the things that matter. The things that will move the needle — and our missions — forward. What's missing? This may become a longer form article, and I'll be sure to shout you out if you contribute to it!
