Did you know? Only 23% of organizations offer opportunities for kids to volunteer. And only 14% of kids participate in community volunteer programs, like ours. (Read the full study here: https://lnkd.in/gZGd6f6U) We are filling the niche for #Tucson families who want to engage their kids in meaningful volunteer projects that actually make a difference for Tucson community members. Help us continue our work + fund our programs: https://lnkd.in/g7t_imQT #smallnonprofit #nextgenerationleaders

How do you participate in your local community? I was 38 years old before I voluntarily participated in any organization outside of work, or Church. Then because of circumstances, I played the role of Mr. Mom. It started with being on the Site Council for my kid's school. Since then, I have been on the PTA, and been PTA President. Currently serving on the Board for the local Hospital Foundation, a city Board, and on the Board of our county travel DMO. I mention this because by serving in a variety of capacities, I've learned to see the world from a viewpoint different than my own. It has given me the opportunity to learn more about non-profit organizations, and a chance to meet regularly with some intelligent individuals. Where do you volunteer, and what have you learned? #volunteerwork #businessrelationships #realestate #investing

I know; I talk about community building a lot. If you saw "community" the way I know it can be for organizations, workplaces, non-profits, and every other group, likely you would feel the way I feel about it! "Community"; "coming-into-unity" is a group dynamic that most people don't even know it's possible to attain. It is. I show people how. #Community #CommunityConsciousness #CommunityBuilding #teambuilding #groupdynamics #communitydevelopment. https://lnkd.in/gJsgUGCC

This month’s newsletter from Valley Restart features an article I got to write as a board member about my experience working with the homeless community. “By inviting those struggling financially to the table, we can have a meaningful relationship that transcends any worldly boundaries. We can share knowledge and resources that will change the trajectory of lives.” That is what the work of Valley Restart is all about! ⭐️ To checkout the work of Valley Restart, explore their website at https://lnkd.in/grVpEVfG. — #homelessness #homelessrehabilitation #nonprofit #nonprofitleadership

Nonprofits have lively phrases and words unique to the sector, such as Mission Creep. Nonprofits may at times became distracted by opportunities that fall outside their mission. If they pursue opportunities slightly outside of their core Mission, this is referred to as Mission Creep.
