GiveMN launched its "Give to the Max Day" over 6 years ago.  It was one of the first 24-hour day of giving that rallies and inspires to donate to charities.  On November 13, Minnesotans broke a record Thursday, donating more than $18 million to schools and non-profits.  I have been tracking this giving day since its first Giving Day back in 2009 and every year do a debrief post or interview.  This year, I was lucky enough to get Dana Nelson, Executive Director to do an email interview.    GiveMN … [Read more...] about Record-breaking donations on Give to the Max Day in Minnesota

Help! My Nonprofit Needs A Data Nerd

November 18, 2014 Filed Under: Measurement

Last week, I facilitated a mini-innovation lab on measuring impact for grantees of the Google Nonprofit program at the Impact Hub.  The workshop used design-thinking based on Luma methodology to help participants develop a communications strategy for measuring impact.      The process took participants through an assessment of the problems facing them, collective brainstorming, and prototyping. We spent a fair amount of time framing and reframing the problem and ended up with a question that … [Read more...] about Help! My Nonprofit Needs A Data Nerd
