Anyone here used to pop around Twitter/X for #Charityhour ?
Pop you 👍🏾 or a Yes below, please.

My local @mindcharity.bsky.social shop is closing soon.
And here are the reasons why👇🏾

📈Years of Rent going up
📉Foot Traffic going down
💎Their best pieces are being snatched up for online resale by a few buyers, leaving them with the lower quality, Fast Fashion items. And also rags donations.

MPs voted against amendments that would have reduced the burden of the increase in NI on charities.
With many Hospices already under immense pressure, I wonder if they’ll find a way to get Gov to hear their cry for help.

Had a little trip to see some Northumbria University students this morning.

Once again we throw @getnucha.bsky.social value prop at them & see what happens. They’re all in 👏🏾

We’re starting something exciting with them in January 🛠️

Time to get your charity listed. Especially if it sells online.

Building a platform for charities is no joke.
Over the years, I felt like giving up so many times.
When a charity leader says “this a great solution” but want to see other charities using it first, it feels like a punch in the gut.
But we’re seeing a lot more interest now 🤞🏾

Next week I’m meeting a group of #northumbriauniversity students to talk all things marketing strategy, Ideal Customer Profile and reach.
I’ve spoken with students about #purpose #circularity & supporting charities.
And I’ve learnt so much from these conversations.

Trust your team…always.

I’ve been taking Nucha App in a more focused and surgical approach to circularity and giving back.
On Monday they held our first listing party.
We didn’t have plenty of students rushing in.
However, the success came in the form of the quality of conversations held.

Younger generations, although they are the most connected (online), are going through a loneliness epidemic.
If your charity only wants them to just “Give”, they see helping your cause as a chore.
They value connection.

And so starts my favourite time of the year ❄️🌨️🔥

What a week !
We had our first true social event at @getnucha.bsky.social.
We took them to a teahouse ☕️
No alcohol.
No shouting.
A few ideal users showed up and we had a laugh.
That it.
That was the purpose of the event : to meet students and young charity supporters where they are.

Since I’ve started @getnucha.bsky.social I’ve spoken with a few tech founders who tried to bring innovative solutions to the #charity sector.
And the first thing they told me is that the sector is quite tech averse & very reluctant to try new things 😞

How do we overcome this challenge?
#techforgood

The thrill of being a founder is when you see a user showing up, use your platform and have nithing to complain about 👌🏾
