Questions From Nonprofits! [Video]

Jarrett Ransom welcomes guest co-host LaShonda Williams CFRE, a trainer at Fundraising Academy, and they share insights in response to questions from viewers and listeners. The first question involves the idea of department heads attending board meetings to foster relationships and communication between the staff and the board. LaShonda and Jarrett emphasize the importance of this practice, highlighting the benefits of building relationships and the need for direct connections between fundraising staff and board members. Next, they address the question of organizing a community walk with multiple organizations involved. LaShonda recommends assessing the need and involving all stakeholders in the planning process while managing expectations regarding participation percentages. The discussion then turns to email communication frequency, where they stress the importance of data analysis, segmenting the audience, and respecting individual preferences for communication frequency. They encourage the use of smart goals and segmentation to tailor communications effectively. Finally, they discuss the idea of hosting monthly all-staff lunches on-site to build camaraderie, especially in organizations that offer remote work options. LaShonda advises considering the geographical locations of employees and budget constraints while aiming for quarterly in-person meetings to strengthen team cohesion.You can also listen to the show on your favorite podcast channel.

The Nonprofit that is Making NARCAN available [Video]

Nonprofit Brings NARCAN over-the-counterA lifesaving medication that reverses opioid overdoses will soon become more accessible, thanks to an innovative nonprofit company. Harm Reduction Therapeutics has received FDA approval for RiVive, the first over-the-counter naloxone nasal spray created by a nonprofit. Available in early 2024, RiVive aims to save lives by providing broad, low-cost access to this critical drug. Unlike big pharma, Harm Reduction Therapeutics is focused on equipping hardest-hit communities – not profits. At least 200,000 doses will be distributed free of charge where they are needed most. This creative approach could be a game-changer in expanding access to naloxone, a medication that can mean the difference between life and death for those experiencing an opioid overdose. Harm Reduction Therapeutics exemplifies the power of nonprofits to drive real change.——-Listen to our podcast: Wholewhale.com/PodcastOn Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WholeWhaleTweet us: @WholeWhaleOur website: WholeWhale.com/

The ONLY State that Has Online Petitions??? [Video]

Daniel Newman, president and co-founder of MapLight, joins to discuss how their technology improves government transparency and direct democracy. MapLight builds software for state and local governments to provide easy public access to campaign finance data, e-signatures for petitions, and other services. Their goal is to counter the undue influence of money in politics by empowering citizens and journalists to hold officials accountable. Newman argues digital petitions could enable more grassroots, people-powered ballot initiatives. However, institutional resistance and polarization often block reforms, even those that would help voters across the political spectrum. Newman wrote the book Un-Rigged to explain major democracy reform issues in an accessible, solutions-oriented way.——-Listen to our podcast: Wholewhale.com/PodcastOn Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WholeWhaleTweet us: @WholeWhaleOur website: WholeWhale.com/
