Celebrating National Nonprofit Day: Leading with Love, Creativity and Best Practices


On National Nonprofit Day we reflect on the contributions of nonprofit leaders who dedicate their time, passion, and skills to shaping a brighter future. These leaders are driven by a shared commitment to community service, advocacy, and positive change. They are not just individuals in leadership roles; they are the heart and soul of organizations that work tirelessly to make a difference. Here are some reasons why we love nonprofit leadership:

  • As nonprofit leaders we are dedicated to community service and entrepreneurship. We shape the future of our communities with love, creativity and best practices.

  • As nonprofit leaders we form partnerships and make new friends who care about what we care about, so that our love and our efforts can be multiplied.

  • As nonprofit leaders we are advocates for those who need it most. We are believers and dreamers crafting solutions that change the world.

  • As nonprofit leaders we are life-long learners developing personal competencies and professional skills to better serve our communities and drive positive change.

  • As nonprofit leaders we are innovators offering new ideas and challenging the status quo to push our causes forward and improve the communities we serve.

  • As nonprofit leaders we plan and budget resources to execute projects that change the world. We reflect and design for a future that aligns to our vision and mission.
