Hi everyone! My name is Aaron and I'm here on behalf of the We Defy Foundation. We save lives of combat veterans by utilizing Brazilian jiujitsu as a form of therapy. I look forward to engaging with the community!

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. Drop your latest post below and start the exchange! #NonprofitLeaders #SocialMediaStrategy #CommunityEngagement

YEAR-END FUNDRAISING - The 72-Hour Rule – 30% of annual giving happens in December. 10% happens in the last 3 days. If you're not planning now, you're leaving money on the table. - Gratitude Before the Ask – Steward existing donors first. A personal thank-you call or video this week can double your December conversion rate. - Tell One Story Well – Stop telling your entire mission. Pick one impact story, one life changed, one measurable win. Make it repeatable across every channel. - Recurring Revenue Wins – Monthly giving programs outlast one-time campaigns. Offer a simple "sustainer" option before year-end. TAX PLANNING FOR BUSINESSES - Q4 Estimated Payments Due Jan 15 – Don't get caught short. Review your liability now, not in December panic mode. - Accelerate Deductions – Prepay expenses, donate equipment, fund retirement accounts. Legal moves that lower taxable income before Dec 31. - Charitable Giving Strategy – Business owners: QCDs, DAFs, and in-kind contributions aren't just tax moves—they're legacy plays. EXPENSE MANAGEMENT & BUDGET DISCIPLINE - Audit What's Not Working – Cut subscriptions, renegotiate contracts, cancel what didn't move the mission forward. - Document Everything – Grants, compliance, audits—clean financials now save you thousands in Q1. - Set 2026 Baseline Early – Don't wait until January to budget. Lock in your operating model before the year turns.
