We’re inspired and encouraged following the Michigan Nonprofit Association's Nonprofit Day at the Capitol. If you find yourself asking, "What can I do?" when it comes to advocacy for the sector and your cause, consider starting with your state's nonprofit association.

Today is #GivingTuesday! This is the Super Bowl of fundraising—not everyone will win big with this much competition. #nonprofits, remember:

❣️There are 29 other giving days before 12/31/24.
❣️The biggest giving day of the year is 12/31.
❣️Major gifts come from major relationships—not social media.

Crossing the Mackinac Bridge, we were reminded that bridges connect more than just places—they connect people, ideas, and opportunities for growth.
