Alexis Stroud, MPH on LinkedIn: Extremely grateful for everything I've learned through this internship… (2024)

National Interest v Personal Interest. What defines who you are? You might not have a PPE sized trust fund or a fancy yacht to sail away on, but please do think of ways you can support local and national campaigns. Just like these two below.

Happy Red Friday! Let's make it a GREEN Friday for just a couple of minutes though. I had a Big Brothers Big Sisters Kansas City Board meeting this week. During that board meeting, we talked about this graphic. The purpose of the JEDI board is to find creative ways to bring potential Bigs, Match Makers, and companies into the BBBS family so that we can remove green pins. Every green marker you see is a Little who wants someone to mentor them. A Little who wants an additional positive influence in their life. That wants to be introduced to new experiences, outlooks, and possibilities. Maybe being a Big isn't ideal right now, but maybe you know someone who it would be ideal for. Maybe you know a company that would help sponsor events or matches. Maybe youre looking for a way to make an impact by just donating monthly. Maybe you have a closet full of clothes that need to be donated someplace! Ask me about BBBS. Ask me about how you can help us. There's a plethora of ways! #nonprofit #boardmemeber #ittakeslittletobebig #defendpotenital #mentorship #diversity #BBBS #BBBSKC

Giving is always good...

Lisa, I commend you for taking this issue head-on! While we having this conversation, can we also address the endless restrictions and complications around any money received. Our focus needs to be on improving the lives of people not on endless paperwork created to satisfy lawyers and the bureaucracy!

Today is Giving Tuesday the unofficial start of the year end fundraising season. I encourage you to give a donation today to your favorite nonprofit organization(s) to support this day of giving.Over the past couple of weeks I have given exposure to what I call "hidden gem" organizations. They are smaller nonprofits, many of these startups formed within the past 5 years.If small business is the engine that keeps the economy going, these "hidden gem" organizations help make our society better by providing services and working on the issues facing our disadvantaged citizens.The organizations that I mentioned are the following:New Mexico Victims Rights ProjectHole in the Heart FoundationPeopleWorks-NMAlbuquerque Speech Language Hearing CenterNew Mexico Caregivers CoalitionFamily Caregiver Center of New MexicoEndorphin Power CompanyNew Mexico Reentry CenterGlobal Give A BookThis is just a small sample of organization here in New Mexico making a difference. There are so many others.The good news is that since Giving Tuesday is the start of the year end fundraising season, i may have time to mention more organizations in December or even talk more about the ones mentioned above.My purpose in doing this was to give exposure to organizations you may not be aware of while letting you know the range of organizations in the nonprofit area. Hope you will read more about these groups and give to your favorite organization between now and December 31.#givingtuesday #givingtuesday2023 #nonprofit #nonprofits #fundraising #newmexico #nonprofitorganization
