What's the point of a Letter of Support, and why do you need one? Even if a grant proposal doesn't require a Letter of Support, it's a great idea to have one at-the-ready - or at least have a good framework you can quickly send out to your biggest community fan. These are written by people outside of your organization who can speak to the great work you do and why they think others should invest their time, talents, and resources to your mission. #nonprofit #fundraising Learn more here from Grantboost: https://lnkd.in/g6TCzdKp

Communicating with people in their native language during times of crisis or tense situations can not only provide them with comfort, but also reduce any misunderstandings.

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: For our Fall 2024 edition of online journal, New England Museums Now, NEMA is hoping you'll share your thoughts about Membership and Development. Article topics could include: changes you may have experienced; ways your organization has adapted since 2020; and tips, tools, and tricks for streamlining membership and development initiatives. A key aspect to a museum's success is its relationship with its most steadfast supporters: its membership. Over the last four years, engagement with our closest community ties has shifted dramatically. It is necessary, now more than ever, to maintain sincere connection with those who've supported long-term, while also developing trust with new audiences. Many nonprofits are looking for the attention (and money) of audiences museums also rely on, so how do organizations we stay relevant and appealing while also accommodating the needs and wants of those we're looking to cultivate? We want to hear from you! Looking for inspiration? Visit our website for some questions/ideas to ponder: https://ow.ly/HfbC50RNX6a Inquiry deadline (tell us what you're thinking of writing): Friday, June 28, 2024 Submission deadline: Friday, July 26, 2024 Full details can be found here: https://ow.ly/Lg0E50RNX6b

A recent study by the OECD - OCDE revealed that just 8% of official development assistance (ODA) for the media and information ecosystem directly supports media organizations within recipient states. Moreover, funding levels have remained flat since 2008, in spite of increasing challenges to media integrity and democracy.   Nicholas Benequista, Ph.D. and Laure-Hélène Piron explain the necessity of increasing funding for local organizations and bolstering a media ecosystem by and for local actors.
