@Gustavo Bracco Welcome, Gustavo! πŸ‘‹ We're excited to have you join us from SΓ£o Paulo, Brazil. Your background as an attorney, former professional athlete, and nonprofit leader brings a unique perspective to our community. I especially appreciate your organization's focus on using sports as a vehicle for education, leadership development, and social inclusion. Those are the kinds of programs that create lasting impact far beyond the playing field. Thank you for joining NMM. I look forward to learning more about Instituto Futuros Craques and the incredible work you're doing to create opportunities for young people. Welcome to Nonprofit Mission Million! πŸŒŽβš½πŸ€πŸŽ‰

@Janee Smaw Hi Janee! Welcome to Nonprofit Mission Million! We're so glad you're here. Thank you for sharing your story and the incredible vision behind S & S Enrichment Services. Supporting young adults transitioning from the foster care system with housing, healing, and life skills is such important work, and I'm excited to see your organization grow. Congratulations on reaching this stage as you wait for your nonprofit status to be approved. There are still many things you can begin building now, and I hope this community helps make that journey a little easier. Don't hesitate to ask questions, share your progress, and lean on the collective experience of the group. We are all here to learn from and support one another. Welcome again, Janee. I can't wait to follow your journey! 🌟
πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Happy Holiday Weekend, NMM Family!
I hope you have an opportunity to slow down, spend time with the people you love, and get some well deserved rest. πŸ’™ If you happen to find a little extra time this weekend, consider investing it in you and your mission. This is a great opportunity to: ✨ Catch up on any courses you haven't completed. πŸ“ˆ Level up by engaging with posts, asking questions, and supporting other members in the community. 🎯 Keep building the systems that will help your organization grow its impact. And most importantly... Take a moment to recognize how far you've already come. Leading a nonprofit isn't easy. Every grant you apply for, every donor you cultivate, every person you serve, and every challenge you overcome matters. Even if progress feels slow, you're making a difference, and we're honored to be part of your journey. Thank you for showing up, learning, sharing, and supporting one another. You're doing an incredible job, and I can't wait to see what you'll accomplish in the months ahead. Have a safe, restful, and joy filled holiday weekend! We'll see you back in the community next week. ❀️ Tell us one win you're celebrating this week, big or small. We'd love to celebrate with you! πŸŽ‰
πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Happy Holiday Weekend, NMM Family!

@Xander Upham Thanks, Xander! I couldn't agree more. Some of the biggest opportunities in my life have come through relationships with people who knew, trusted, and believed in the mission. Your comment is actually perfect timing because I'm working on a new course all about building authentic relationships and strategic networking for nonprofit leaders. We'll cover how to build meaningful connections that lead to partnerships, funding opportunities, mentors, and long term impact. I can't wait to share it with the community. I think it's going to be one of our most valuable courses yet! 😊
Grant Opportunity
Happy Financial Friday, NMM! πŸŽ‰ This week's funding opportunity is for organizations creating meaningful change for women and girls. πŸ“’ Grant Opportunity: COMO Foundation The COMO Foundation is seeking nonprofit partners that are focused on closing the opportunity gap for women and girls through: ✨ Education ✨ Economic security ✨ Gender equity programming Who should consider applying? βœ… Registered nonprofits operating in the communities they serve βœ… Organizations with a clear theory of change and measurable outcomes βœ… Organizations focused on advancing women and girls socially, culturally, and economically βœ… Typical annual operating budgets between $250,000 and $2 million πŸ’° Grant amount: Not publicly listed, but organizations are encouraged to submit an inquiry to learn more. https://comofoundation.org/partnerships/becoming-a-partner/ πŸ“… Deadline: Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, so there's no need to wait. πŸ’‘ NMM Tip: Even if this opportunity isn't the perfect fit for your organization, take a few minutes to research the foundation. Follow them on social media, sign up for their newsletter, and learn about the organizations they currently fund. Building relationships with funders before you need funding is one of the most overlooked grant strategies. πŸ‘‡ Drop a comment if you're planning to apply or if you know another nonprofit that should see this opportunity.

πŸ’° Financial Fridays: Funding + Technology Opportunity Alert πŸ’°
Happy Financial Friday, NMM Community! This week's opportunity is a little different because it combines both funding and technology supportβ€”two things many nonprofits need to grow their impact. πŸš€ The Zendesk Foundation's Tech for Good Impact Awards are now accepting applications! Selected nonprofits may receive: βœ… Grant funding ranging from $5,000–$50,000 βœ… Free Zendesk software βœ… Technology resources to help strengthen operations and expand impact The program is focused on organizations working to: 🀝 Foster Community ⚑ Promote Resilience in Times of Crisis πŸ’» Create Career Pathways into Tech One key point I always remind nonprofit leaders of is that funders are not only supporting specific programs but also investing in the organization's capacity to achieve impactful results. Opportunities like this can help strengthen both your mission and the systems that support it. πŸ“… Application Deadline: July 15, 2026 πŸ”— Learn More: https://techforgood.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/6476814314637-What-are-the-Tech-for-Good-Impact-Awards Comment below if you're thinking about applying. #FinancialFridays #NonprofitMissionMillion #GrantFunding #NonprofitLeadership #NonprofitTechnology #TechForGood #CapacityBuilding #SocialImpact
