Key Takeaways:

• A mindset of scarcity has an immense effect on the effectiveness of an organization’s marketing or execution. It has a tendency to seep into the unconscious and affect the energy of interactions and decisions. 
• Nonprofits must realize that they provide people with the unique opportunity to be connected to the mission that’s meaningful to them. 
• There’s nothing wrong with nonprofits making their people’s workplaces better or giving their workers a living wage. We live in a world that’s abundant, there’s enough for everyone.
• Use AI as a tool or as an assistant to your writing work. Use it to spark ideas or to get through creative blocks. But don’t think that you can use it to replace people or replace you and your voice. Let AI work for you, but use it alongside your other tools and resources.

“We provide for many people in this world, the primary place for meaning and purpose. Whatever nonprofit you do. All those things give tremendous meaning and purpose. ”

“I think the vast majority of people that are going to the nonprofit sector, they don't go in it for the money. They go in it for meaning and purpose and the difference they're trying to make through the organization.”

“If you want them to find your website and donate then make it super easy to find where that donate now button is. Do an audit of your website, make sure it's very simple. Do an audit of your organization in terms of how easy is it to give to your organization.”
