The Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) List is now posted in the Nonprofit Tools board in the Classroom. This list includes DAFs I’ve interacted with directly, as well as others I found through emails and public websites. It goes beyond what we discussed in today’s meeting, so feel free to check it out and add any others you’re aware of—the goal is to make it a collaborative, growing resource. Also, I wanted to share a Facebook group for the Military Spouse Professional Networking that I mentioned during the meeting. It could be a great space to post requests for support or volunteers. Thank you!

Thank you, Vince for the recognition for Memorial Day at the end of today's meeting. I know that this group understands the meaning of this weekend more than most. I stepped out into a new space this past week and recorded a podcast with my friend and fellow Gold Star Sister, Ryan Manion, who is the CEO of the Travis Manion Foundation. I have posted the Spotify link here and would appreciate you guys sharing it within your network to not only bring awareness to our foundation and Drew's legacy, but to set the tone for the Memorial Day holiday!

So while you are recounting their stories, remember that your integrity and leadership created their incredible character! Thank you all for continuing to share your lessons learned and experiences because it is truly so helpful!

As a Business Solutions Consultant and Executive Assistant with over a decade of experience as an Operations Director for a nonprofit, I bring a unique perspective shaped by my 22 years as a U.S. Navy spouse and a passion for supporting military and veteran families. My journey has been defined by transforming challenges into opportunities—whether advocating for the Military Spouses Residency Relief Act, where my testimony letter was presented at a Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs hearing, or guiding businesses. With a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and certifications like Certified Administrative Professional and Accredited Financial Counselor®, I’m equipped to tackle complex problems and deliver innovative solutions. I’m excited to connect with all of you!

Vince challenged us to post about a challenge. The challenge I have in front of me is trying to locate the right software to manage our volunteers. I want to find a low cost, web-based tool, that fits how we engage with and schedule volunteers. Anybody have something that they love and are passionate about?
