August Nonprofit Lunch n Learn “How to Effectively Communicate Needs to Your Community”
Communication is key for all nonprofits seeking the support from their communities. Without conveying the needs of your organization, your nonprofit will not only miss out on the necessities of the organization but also the opportunity to reinforce your mission. Join us Tuesday, August 31st as we hear from experts who will present on their success of how to properly communicate their mission, needs, and overall purpose of their nonprofit.
