It Starts with I
Impact, innovation, inclusion—these three key ideas all start with the individuals who work for, volunteer with, and support the nonprofit organization. Join us for presentations, panel forums, working sessions, and small interactive workshops that will educate and inspire you.
- IMPACT: Real Stories, Real People Can your volunteers, staff, donors, and board members share your nonprofit’s impact story to others in a compelling way? This session discusses the art of storytelling for nonprofits to build a stronger community, increase fundraising effectiveness, and turn your donors into champions for your cause. Learn how to incorporate data into your narrative and apply these lessons to effectively share your story with stakeholders.
- INNOVATION: Rock Your Social Media Presence Learn how to build effective social media pages for your nonprofit. Work with seasoned social media experts to develop engaging content, leverage your network to make valuable connections, and influence your community to volunteer or donate. Learn how to use social media analytics to understand trends that may apply to your cause.
- INCLUSION: Build Inclusion and Diversity into Your Nonprofit’s Mission and Board of Directors This workshop explores ways to build the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion into your nonprofit’s mission and operations. Explore the ways diversity and inclusion are critical to high performing boards and how your board can fulfill diversity and inclusion goals.
- Bonus! INDIVIDUAL: I (You!) Dive deep into your specific questions and hear expert opinions targeted to your unique circumstances.
