We’re proud to continue partnering on this growing WorkShift initiative with the FrameWorks team—with more to come! 🔗 3 Things to Know about Labor this Labor Day: https://lnkd.in/eE5BV3-r 🔗 More about WorkShift: https://lnkd.in/eRrWPmr4 #Framing #Communications #Nonprofits

I know many pundits have crafted DEI's obituary, but the reality is that it's far from dead. Smart government agencies, forward-looking corporations, and value-driven non-profits understand that creating a workplace environment where people feel valued and can do their best work is just common business sense.

Honoring Workers on Labour Day is more than just a nod to hard work – it's about genuine appreciation! 🌟 Here are 5 meaningful ways to show your gratitude: 1️⃣ Acts of Kindness: Simple "Thank You" gestures can mean the world. Surprise a co-worker with a coffee or a handwritten note. 2️⃣ Community Service: Use this day to give back! Organize a clean-up event or volunteer at a local shelter. 3️⃣ Special Shoutouts: Use social media to give a shoutout to hardworking individuals. Use #LabourDayHeroes to spread the love! 4️⃣ Donate: Contribute to worker support organizations. Every penny counts and makes a big difference. 5️⃣ Host a Gathering: Plan a fun, socially-distanced get-together to celebrate your team's efforts. A BBQ or a picnic can do wonders! Let's make this Labour Day memorable and show our workers they truly matter. What will you do to honor workers?

At one nonprofit I worked with, we had a ton of donors. The catch? Almost all of them were event attendees who had never been asked to give outside of those events. We were hosting great parties and fun auctions, but the truth is, we were stuck on the event treadmill—constantly running, stressed about ticket sales, sponsorships, and barely making it to the finish line. Sound familiar? I've been hearing a lot from nonprofits who are tired of being so heavily event-driven and want to focus on long-term relationships instead. And let me tell you, shifting your focus pays off. While I’m not anti-events (I love a good gala as much as anyone!), the real magic happens when you transition event donors into major gift donors and long-term supporters. Here’s the thing: events can be a great entry point for donors, but they’re just that—an entry point. If you only ever reach out to your supporters when there’s a ticket or auction item involved, you’re missing out on building deeper connections, and you're leaving revenue on the table. So how do you make that shift? Start by getting to know your event attendees beyond the night of the event. What are their interests? Why did they come to your event in the first place? From there, build a follow-up strategy that focuses on storytelling, meaningful engagement, and specific asks outside of the event circuit. You’d be amazed at how many of those attendees are ready to deepen their involvement once they feel personally connected to your mission. Not only will this save you time and stress, but it will also yield more revenue—without the constant pressure of planning the next big thing. Plus, it strengthens relationships with donors who are in it for the long haul, rather than just for the night of the party. It’s time to get off the event treadmill and start focusing on long-term support. Ready to make the shift?

I am researching Community-Based Grassroots in Syracuse! Let me know if anyone has any leads on where I can find data that breaks down the number of grassroots and/or non-profits in Syracuse that cater to community issues! Curious to find the percentage of these organizations, their target populations, the duration of activity in the community, and so on.
