Since investing more in LinkedIn, one thing I’ve been truly heartened by is the supportive culture among fundraising professionals.
Sharing knowledge, offering advice, encouragement, empathy…despite often competing for the same limited funds and resources, facing internal pressures and expectations, and almost always with a million and one other things they could be giving their time and energy to.
There is such an authenticity to this culture which recognises that, at the end of the day, we each just want to make the world a better place for everyone, and that means working for, not against, one another. This is a culture which embodies what philanthropy should be all about.
Yes, there is much wrong with the sector. But THIS is the culture that makes me proud to be in non-profits and nowhere else 💙🫶👊
