Virtual Coffee Break
Fundraising, development, and nonprofit work is lonely in the best of times, but even more so now that we have to practice social distancing, even more torturous for the extraverts in the group! I found that just seeing a face and talking to someone other than my family (who I love dearly, but really … 24/7?!) makes the day go a little faster and my mood brighter.
So in that vein, I decided to host a series of FREE virtual coffee breaks. No agenda, just a time to get together and talk about what’s on your mind. We can share fundraising tips, tips about surviving while we shelter-in-place, or just chit chat. So bring your favorite beverage and sign in at the allotted time and chat with others in your shoes. Kids and pets welcome!
Registration required. Once you register you will be emailed Zoom meeting details.
