I’m glad you enjoyed it! That TED video is one of my favorites. I refer to it whenever I feel at a loss for creativity.

Hi Julie –

Not sure if you’re in marketing…but I really enjoyed this guide – “The First 100 Days of Your New Nonprofit Marketing Job”
(unfortunately, I found it about 200 days into my last job..!) A bunch of the recommendations are probably pretty generalizable.

Congratulations and good luck!

For more fuel to add to the conversation / grant proposals, check out one of Dan Pallotta’s recent blogs as well – http://blogs.harvardbusiness.org/pallotta/2009/10/show-me-the-money-why-psychic.html – which also partly debunks the “emotional and spirit-feeding” benefits of working in the nonprofit sector.

Comment on Got time to spare? by Taylor Overstreet

Hi Ann, thanks for reading! A couple of ideas for you… I don’t know of anything specific, but you might try contacting Hands On Central Texas, the volunteer arm of the Capital Area United Way. They’re a great resource and may know of something. Something else, some organizations might offer day care services for clients, and if you find an organization where you would like to volunteer, perhaps you could bring your child along and be on site together. If you find a great opportunity that works for you, please let us know!

Are you aware of volunteer opps where an accompanying child (18 months) would be ok to bring along. These two things may not go together but I thought i’d see if you had any thoughts.
