Remember Your Why
In the day-to-day hustle of our work, it’s easy to forget why we do what we do. To-do lists, deadlines, and budgets can get the better of us. That’s why we remind clients to step back from the immediate tasks at hand and remember their greater purpose and mission.
We encourage our nonprofit leaders to stay connected to why their volunteers, donors, and staff are involved with their organization.
