A few weeks ago, Allison Jones from Entry Level Living came up with a brilliant idea: create a rockstar blogging alliance. Just like the one she’d read about on ProBlogger. Except with nonprofit folks. I was excited to join the group, not only because Allison is awesome, but because I firmly believe in the power of peer support to help develop leadership skills. For me, blogging is all about leadership. You write to teach others what you know, to learn what you don’t know, and to connect with others who may even end up disagreeing with you. When I started blogging two years ago, there were only a handful of nonprofit bloggers who were my age. Now the voice of next generation nonprofit leaders has become a rising hum of change and a testament to the growth and development of future leaders for the sector.
As part of my involvement with the Nonprofit Millennial Blogging Alliance, I will be sharing posts from these fabulous bloggers on a regular basis, hopefully improving your perspective of the nonprofit sector in the process. And now, without further ado…
