I suspect a lot will be different this summer. Even the weather in the Triangle this week has not been typical.When I entered the nonprofit sector in 1993, summer was considered a downtime—a slower pace. A time to come in a little later, leave a little earlier. Generally, get ahead. Throughout my career I have seen that change. Summer does not have the same frenzy of the fall, but it is no longer the sleepy season, especially not this year.
Our younger son, Carson, graduates high school this Sunday—sort of.He will put on his cap and gown. We will drive to the school. He will jump out of the car and onto a makeshift stage. His name will be called, a photo snapped, and a brief video captured. He will get back into the car and we will leave. Should take about 3 minutes.
Leading with transparency is my personal go-to. In our current environment, I believe transparency in fundraising is absolutely essential.
Last week I attended, along with some of my Armstrong McGuire teammates, the Groundwater Training hosted by the YMCA of the Triangle and led by Monica and Jennifer from the Racial Equity Institute.
