There's still time to register for Community Boost national conference TODAY! My workshop is on the reality that in a busy, digital world, maintaining genuine relationships with donors is tough. Non-profits often focus only on financial contributions, overlooking those who can't give money. How can we value all supporters and create meaningful ways for everyone to contribute? I will give an orientation on how to budget your time effectively, ensuring you can transform donors into partners without burning yourself out. We use a funnel strategy to guide people through clear, intentional steps of involvement, from being passive observers in the CROWD to ADVOCATES who support and share your work. See y'all at the workshop! https://hubs.li/Q02GPwzM0

Sharing Stories with Heart: How MemoryFox is Transforming Our Impact 📢 At I Would Rather Be Reading the personal stories of the children we serve shape our mission. Building trust and meaningful relationships is key to our work. Recently, we started using MemoryFox, an ethical storytelling platform we discovered at the Nonprofit Storytelling Conference. It has revolutionized how we capture and share stories from our children, families, volunteers, donors, and staff. This platform makes sharing comfortable and encourages everyone to reveal their “why”. MemoryFox allows us to ask: - Why do you enjoy attending IWRBR camps? - How has attending camp helped you grow as a student? - Why do you choose to volunteer with IWRBR? - How do you see IWRBR impacting the community? and so much more! Thank you, MemoryFox, for supporting our commitment to ethical storytelling. Your platform was crucial in making our First Annual Hearts For Hope Impact Breakfast a huge success! #EthicalStorytelling #NonprofitImpact #CommunitySupport #MemoryFox #IWRBR #SupportEducation #GiveBack #Volunteer Carly Euler Natalie Monroe 🦊

The community should be that equal partner in educating because when you invest in education the whole community gets better If you don't whether you're in a business whether you're a nonprofit then you're you know what I mean Like that's where you should place your investment or some of it at least https://loom.ly/XvwwM34
