We are beginning in 2 minutes! Come introduce yourself to the Nonprofit Leaders group! Our monthly Free call. Best, Vince Lindenmeyer

Running a nonprofit isn’t easy — but every day, we create impact, shift lives, and build hope. 💙 I’d love to start a powerful conversation in this community. 🎉 Share Your Latest Win! It can be something small but meaningful or a major breakthrough: Secured a new grant or donor? Helped a family, youth, or community group? Registered your nonprofit or completed a key compliance step? Launched a program, event, or outreach campaign? Built a partnership you’re proud of? Every win deserves to be celebrated — and your story might inspire someone else who needs that push today. 👇 Drop your win in the comments! Let’s motivate each other and grow together as purpose-driven leaders. 🌱✨

This group exists to amplify nonprofit voices and build meaningful engagement across all platforms. Here's how we operate: Ground Rules: 1. Share your nonprofit's latest social media posts from any platform (Facebook, Instagram, X, LinkedIn, etc.) 2. When you post, commit to engaging with others: Follow other nonprofit accounts Like and comment on their posts; Repost/share content that aligns with your mission. 3. Include with your submission: Platform link Brief context about your organization Any specific engagement you're seeking Tags to help members find relevant content 4. The Law of Circulation applies: The more engagement you provide to others, the more your content will receive in return. 5. Keep content mission-focused: This exchange exists to advance impact, not personal promotion. Let's build a community where nonprofit leaders can efficiently grow their digital presence while forming valuable connections with aligned organizations.
