Center for Nonprofit Excellence: Louisville and Southern Indiana

As we celebrate Thanksgiving week, we at CNPE give thanks for all that nonprofits do. And we are especially mindful of the nonprofit workers who don't get time off for the holidays. We see your sacrifices and appreciate the work you do!

Our partnerships with funders - from foundations to corporate sponsors to individual donors - are so important to making everything at CNPE come together to serve the nonprofit sector. Thank you for investing in nonprofits!

This is a time to give thanks for all the good work that is being done in Louisville and Southern Indiana by dedicated nonprofit organizations. They strive every day to make our community stronger. At CNPE, we strive to give the nonprofits the resources they need to keep building a better world.

CNPE's Nonprofit Job Board is a valuable resource for our member organizations. Member organizations can post jobs on the board at no cost - that's a $100 value. It's also a great place for people to look for jobs in the nonprofit sector! There's no cost to job seekers! https://bit.ly/46djCr5

Many nonprofit leaders showed up to work feeling powerful this morning! Our third "Power Hour" speaker led a sold-out event on corporate sponsorships. Cynthia Lee helped us think more broadly about types of corporate sponsorships and how to build relationships that result in productive partnerships - ones that benefit both the sponsor and the nonprofit. She will soon be teaching a more in-depth workshop on this topic. Stay tuned for details. Thank you to Pinnacle Financial Partners for sponsoring this informative event. Thank you also to the Louisville Slugger Museum and Barrels & Billets for helping us host this event!

??Congratulations to the 2024 class of Emerging Leaders! This class met monthly for six months to discuss all aspects of nonprofit leadership from finance to communications, to much more! This annual program is aimed at both young, early-career professionals, but also those more experienced professionals who are making the switch to nonprofits mid-career! Join us in celebrating these great emerging leaders! ??The world needs them! ??

Earlier this week, the National Council of Nonprofits held a webinar on the impact of the elections on nonprofits in the United States - including actions that may be expected within the lame duck session and in the new administration. If you couldn't make it, that discussion is now viewable on YouTube.
