A special moment in honoring the past while celebrating the future: The newly constructed bridge, replacing the one originally dedicated to Gary "Swampy" Worster, was rededicated in his memory. His wife, Holly, Raymond Worster, and sisters, Gail and Marsha Worster, joined the occasion. Custom signs featuring a photo of Gary on the original bridge now accompany the official state memorial signs, thanks to Division 6264’s generous donation and support. In a heartfelt tribute, Holly, Gail, and Marsha became the first civilians to cross the bridge in Gary's pickup truck, a gesture that deeply resonated with the family. The dedicated crew behind this meaningful project included Ryan Phillips, Patrick McCarthy, Jeff Smith, Ben Sibley, and Stewart McCarthy. Seeing this rededication's impact on Gary’s family was truly moving and a proud moment for everyone involved. #NEP #VINCIConstructionUSA #AttitudeAndExecution #TeamWork #Bridges #Community #Rededication #Support #Friends #Family

What percentage of $11B will your organization secure this year? If you are a registered 501c3 with a program, your answer should be at least $10K in single donor contributions per year. If not...you need the Donor Hierarchy List (DHL) ™ The Donor Hierarchy List (DHL) ™ is our proven resource designed to help nonprofits build their $100K Donor List. It is especially important to the journey of nonprofit leaders and their boards because it emphasizes the importance of leveraging the right relationships at the right time with the right intentions. We just got news of another organization using the DHL to secure $15K last week. It can do the same for you, visit www.thebrandhospital.com to schedule an appointment to see how we can help your organization get on track to tap into that $11B donation pool using the DHL. #s2brandhospital #donorhierarchylist #nonprofit

After a rigorous application and selection process, Carpe Diem Arts has been successfully chosen to be a partner organization of Spur Local, formerly known as Catalogue for Philanthropy. Spur Local says, "All nonprofit partners are chosen by residents who live or work in the Greater Washington region. As part of our annual review process, these 170+ volunteers look beyond the traditional metrics of evaluation and address questions that people don’t always think to ask or have the time to assess. What need is a nonprofit meeting? Are its finances sound? What impact does it make on our local communities, and how does it involve communities in their work? Through this democratic decision-making process, we then determine the critical local nonprofits that join our network, and enter a four-year partnership with us."

From this new Council on Foundations "Coming Together, Not Apart" report: "Division in the United States is certainly not a recent development, but for the past 15 years or so, the U.S. has seemed seized by a novel strain of discord. Particularly since the 2016 election, headlines about toxic polarization— defined here as an “us vs. them” partisan mindset and contempt for political outgroups—have been published ad nauseum. The dynamics of this polarization have been linked to the backsliding of American democracy, as well as a steep rise in political violence. While the connection between toxic polarization and these phenomena may be indirect, there appears to be something unique to the political, media, and societal systems of the United States that is causing toxic polarization to play out in these ways. "From 2016 to 2020, philanthropy invested $9.4 billion to promote democracy, more than twice the total from the previous five years, and philanthropic initiatives aimed at fostering belonging and social cohesion proliferated. "In an October 2023 survey commissioned by the Walton Family Foundation, more than 8 in 10 said they worry about how divided our society is becoming. But they are not resigned to division: Almost 9 in 10 (88%) also said people need to be willing to work together with those holding different beliefs, 2 out of 3 said we can overcome big challenges together if we try, and 8 in 10 said it’s important to listen to people with different opinions." #division #socialcohesion #communitybuilding #pluralism #interfaith #hatecrime #polarization #conflicttransformation #democracy #belonging #inclusion

In a recent piece titled "10 Major Legal Threats to U.S. Civil Society," the escalating legal hurdles faced by charitable nonprofits as they pursue their missions within communities are brought to light. These challenges manifest in the form of new laws that constrict their activities, heightened enforcement measures, and political assaults. Among these obstacles are governmental efforts to criminalize acts of compassion such as providing food and shelter to migrants and the homeless, extending aid to women in need of healthcare, and facilitating bail for those incarcerated. Additionally, charitable nonprofits find themselves under siege for their diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, as well as their advocacy for free speech rights and the preservation of nonprofit nonpartisanship, epitomized by the longstanding Johnson Amendment. 🔗 Read more:
