Leading Oak Nation Entrepreneurial Foundation as a nonprofit founder, without applying for corporate funding in the first 4 years, some of my top resource management lessons for early-stage nonprofits with limited financial resources are: - Think resources over money. There's something you need the money for in the first place. E.g. if you want to do an event, when you think of your need as "hall" instead of "money to rent hall," it changes how you seek what you need and how you see the resources around you. - Relationship is currency. Most of the things we did at ONE Foundation came from the value exchanged with relational currency instead of financial currency. - Don't bite more than you can chew. We ran a fully volunteer-led model for a long time because we couldn't afford to pay a staff member yet. And it worked for the time it could. - Understand that your journey and growth will be in phases. There are times when stability will be much more important than speed. Don't put yourself under undue pressure. Play the long-term game. #FounderStories #NonprofitManagement #OluwatoyinAjiloreChukwuemeka

Many corporations are feeling the pendulum of pressure swing towards removal of DEI programs. An investment in equity is not a pendulum swing. It should be a core value. Or not a core value. It will be interesting to see how other corporations and even nonprofits who swung high in DEI initiatives will sway in the next 12 months. Reach out and ask - especially if you're a stockholder / shareholder or a dues paying member - what is this company's / this nonprofit's dedication and commitment to DEI.
