Sharing current "mission-related" information

This is related to what to share when it comes to social media, in this case, Facebook/IG (should be connected).

Many nonprofit leaders like yourself have said, "I hate social media!" While I understand that, I'm not sure where the disconnect is that the millions, probably at least a billion accounts, are on social media. Those accounts are real human beings, no matter the reason.

As a nonprofit leader, if we stay focused, we will post information relevant to our target audience and our mission.

This is the post I saw and shared, which has led to a share by someone who is an educator and has some special programs within the school she teaches. She also has a wide reach within the community.

Allow me to preface the shared post with my statement above the post...

I’m not sure why it matters whether it’s a group of Democrats or Republicans but at the end of the day attending public meetings about the schools should be priority within the communities that it affects. #VoteLocal

TENNESSEE RANKS 51ST IN EDUCATION SPENDING: Tennessee now ranks 51st in the nation for K-12 investment, according to the 2026 Rankings and Estimates Report from the National Education Association.

It’s a ranking that is fueling sharp debate at the State Capitol over funding priorities and the future of public education.

The report places the Volunteer State 51st in per-pupil spending, behind every other state and the District of Columbia.

Democrats are calling the ranking an embarrassment, pointing to what they describe as a growing gap between funding for public schools and the expansion of private school vouchers.

“I think there is no question that putting some $300 million into a private school voucher program diminishes the money available to invest in teachers and public schools,” Yarbro said. “Just to catch up with Mississippi, the state would need to invest an additional $1.9 billion.”

Republican leaders, however, reject the idea that school choice and public education funding are at odds. They argue the state has continued to invest in public schools while also expanding options for families.

“Student per capita spending is a false flag indicator,” State Sen. Adam Lowe (R-Calhoun) said. “Even if we redirected all voucher funding to public education, it would only increase spending marginally and would not move the needle.” (Photo: Getty)

Again, my intention for this post is to show you an example of how to stay in your lane. I will explain my own reason for sharing and how it all connects with who I am, what I stand for, and what I do.

I will have a pop-up tomorrow, 5/3/2026, and explain a little more for clarity's sake. I want to make sure that we are all clear on how NOT to make this political.
