For next session: quick vote

[Leanna Frick]

Hey y'all! I'm happily putting together our next meeting, but need to prioritize our focus. Please let me know which of these is of interest to you:

• Finding and applying to grants
• Grant tracking/management
• General bookkeeping strategies
• Crowdfunding/annual fundraising campaign strategies
• Recruiting/working with a board
• Staff/board roles and responsibilities (who does what)
• Employee benefits
• Short-term budgeting
• Long-term budget forecasting

Something else??

Hey folks! The majority vote was for crowdfunding as our next topic! I'll plan to share a little about how we use it for our annual fundraising campaign, and I dropped some materials (including a link to our toolkit) in the shared folder. 

We can have an open discussion about strategies and successes, but if anyone else has a successful story to share and wants scheduled time, please holler. Otherwise no homework for this one :) I'll record it for folks who can't join.

We're also getting close to the end of our pre-scheduled Thursday meetings and I'd love to hear from folks what dates/times might work better if Thursdays aren't it!

See ya soon <3

Thursdays are hard for me, but everything seems to change with the season.

Fridays are the best option for me at the moment...3 months, who knows!

Thanks for moving this forward and doing so much!

Hey all, 

If you have a time preference other than the current second Thursday every month at 1pm ET, please fill out this generic week scheduler.  Obviously, no week is going to be identical nor any time slot guaranteed but fill it out as if having a meeting at that time would generally be doable with over a month's notice.

 Hopefully this'll save us all a little back and forth.

Best,

Vivek Doshi (he/him)
