Happy #NationalNonprofitDay! Loving this new campaign from ‪@NatlCouncilNPs‬ aimed at raising public awareness about the important work nonprofits do. How are you celebrating? :) #NonprofitsGetItDone

Nonprofits are often the invisible force keeping communities together, uplifting neighborhoods, and creating opportunities. But few people realize how much they impact their lives. Happy to see some of these stories told in The Nonprofit Quarterly ‪@NPQ‬ --


"When asked if she ever thought much about nonprofits before experiencing these crises, Karen paused. “Honestly, no,” she said. “I didn’t realize how many I interacted with. But nonprofits are everywhere.”


She’s right. Across the United States, there are more than 1.5 million formal nonprofit organizations—ranging from food banks and shelters to museums, credit unions, and social clubs. Collectively, the nonprofit sector contributes $1.4 trillion to the US economy each year and employs more than 10 percent of the country’s private sector workforce, according to the National Council of Nonprofits. Individually, each nonprofit forms a thread in the invisible network that helps our communities not just survive but thrive.


We asked Karen what she hoped people take away from her personal story. She thought for a bit, then said, “You just have to be there for your community. Sometimes you’re the one giving. Sometimes you’re the one receiving. But that’s how we get through. We’re not meant to do life alone.”"

Real quick -- Will you let me know what you think?

I'm considering launching some toolkits (templates, resources, special training content) to hopefully help out with some key areas I get questions about a lot. Which of these would you get excited about?

(PS - if you want updates on resources I share make sure you're on my newsletter! tinyurl.com/nonprofitsandchangemakers
