One of the fun things to do…ok I love it, but you can gather a volunteer(s) to help design your social media posts. Older youth up to 21 or so are great with this. Especially, leading up to GivingTuesday. Add a little ChatGPT and you have your content. Remember, you can batch produce and have 30 days worth of post in no time. My point is, use your FREE Canva Pro account. No more excuses. https://www.canva.com/canva-for-nonprofits/ Well, that leads to another video coming soon!

Well, we only have two more months for Q4 of 2025! I'm checking in to see who has plans for this season. I would love to know if you have plans since this is the biggest time for "givers to give". By the way, I will be hosting a 5-day challenge that leads up to Giving Tuesday, https://www.givingtuesday.org/participate/. I suggest that if you haven't already, sign up for the newsletter, download the tools, and plug into how to launch for Giving Tuesday. Stay tuned for how you may sign up for the challenge to raise money for our communities in need! Let us know if you have an event planned by answering the survey (poll) below. Are you having any challenges right now as it relates to fundraising or overall planning your nonprofit event? If so, share in the comments.

Hello im Chad...I am new to skool ...thanks for accepting me into your community I appreciate it!

Hey everyone! 👋🏾 I’m Virginia J Boykin, and I’m the founder of The Step Up Collective, a nonprofit I created with one mission in mind: helping our youth, families, and community take the next brave step toward stability, support, and success. We focus on empowering children, teens, and families in Philadelphia through mental health support, resources, advocacy, and community-based programs. Basically — when people don’t know where to turn, we show up. 💙 I’ve been in the entrepreneurial world for a minute now, building both a for-profit agency AND this nonprofit at the same time. And let me keep it real — this journey has tested my patience, my Wi-Fi, and my edges… but I’m still standing! 😄🔥 What I’m hoping to get from this community is CONNECTION. We’re growing, expanding, and stepping into new partnerships — so if you’re into youth programs, mental health advocacy, women-led nonprofits, or community work, I’d love to connect. We’re all about elevation over here —“Your next step starts with one brave move.”And this nonprofit is my brave move for the people who need it most. 💙✨ Let’s build together!

With the government shutdown does that effect our non profit being submitted I sent in my application in August haven’t heard back yet on a status still saying pending.
