Want to reach people who don’t usually show up? Surprise them with something they already love. This is a smart reminder to consider events that you might not normally run, but that are relevant to your patrons.

This is why "third places" matter. A library gave Felton Thomas a safer path and a future. Every community hub has the power to change someone’s story.

“The key to success is resilience. And the key to resilience are options.” Running a community hub means the unexpected will happen. Felton Thomas’ rule is simple: resilience comes from options. What “options” are you building for your community this year?

Building community starts with showing up. Being present, inviting people personally, and leading by example can help break down silos and build real connections. Your participation might be what inspires others to get involved.

Take a look behind the scenes at the Verge entrepreneurship hub in OKC. The Verge shares how a nonprofit entrepreneurship hub model opens doors for founders and nudges them towards what's next.

Between emails, texts, and notifications, it’s easy for important updates to get lost. This shares how one community team found success with a simple, old-school idea: a printed newsletter called Under the Door News to help their community stay connected.

This was a nice takeaway from our recent interview with Kristin at The Verge OKC entrepreneur hub. She believes in entrepreneurship, not for wealth or personal fortune, but for its ability to decrease poverty in communities.
