We're traveling back to Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl performance with Account Director Shauna Garriques, who explores how it transcended a primetime spectacle into a powerful lesson in impact storytelling. "The best calls to action don’t feel like demands—they feel like movements people want to be part of. Kendrick ends his performance with a final directive: “Turn This TV Off.” These weren’t just lyrics; they were a demand to wake up. A message that urges audiences to disengage from distractions and focus on more meaningful pursuits." ???Read Shauna’s full piece here?→ https://lnkd.in/gNB5YQFK

What a week. Alongside our nonprofit clients, we’ve been tracking the federal aid funding freeze and its threats to essential services, critical research and community programs. While the freeze has been temporarily rescinded (as of 1/29), the executive orders shaping funding priorities remain in effect—and we will remain vigilant. Nonprofits are on the frontlines of these policy shifts, and your experiences matter. If these executive actions have impacted your work or community, add your voice to the collective advocacy effort.?Share your story with?National Council of Nonprofits?here:?https://lnkd.in/e2-wrgFX How are you navigating these moments of challenge? How can we support you?

For over a decade, Café Momentum has shown that investing in justice-involved youth doesn't just change individual lives—it challenges entire systems. Their model redefines what’s possible, creating real opportunities for young people to lead, thrive and build brighter futures in stronger communities. Now, they’re taking that vision even further. With a unified brand, a fresh identity and an ambitious plan for national expansion, Café Momentum is scaling impact in a way that will transform communities across the country. We’re incredibly proud of our friends at Café Momentum—go see their powerful work in action!
A new chapter begins for Café Momentum. Ten years ago, Café Momentum opened its doors in Dallas with a bold vision: to create opportunities for justice-involved youth to lead, thrive, and transform their futures. Since then, more than 1,200 young people across the country have proven what’s possible when communities invest in their success—demonstrating that when we show up for youth, lives change, and so can systems. Today, we’re marking a milestone in our journey. Momentum Advisory Collective is now Café Momentum. This unified brand brings our mission, our team, and our impact under one identity—backed by a bold, fresh look and a vision for the future. With a flagship location and national training facility launching in Dallas in 2026—and plans to open 10 new restaurants over the next decade—we’re building a movement where every young person has a seat at the table. Together, we rise. Together, we break barriers. Together, we dream without limits. Join us as we take this movement to new heights. Explore the vision, experience the brand, and be part of the change—our new website is now live! cafemomentum.org #EatDrinkChangeLives #CaféMomentum Café Momentum Atlanta Café Momentum Dallas Café Momentum Pittsburgh Café Momentum Denver

As history unfolds around us today, we are reminded: the fight for justice is not over. Hope is a practice. A verb. A choice to keep going. Dr. King was not just a dreamer—he was a relentless champion for the people, standing in the face of injustice with courage and an unwavering belief in a better future. For those carrying the weight of this moment, for those still in the fight—we see you. We stand with you. Hope is in the work. Let’s keep building. #MLKDay #HopeInAction #JusticeForAll #KeepGoing

Have you heard about H.R. 9495, a dangerous bill making its way through Congress that threatens the essential work of nonprofits and the communities they serve? This bill could give the government broad power to shut down organizations without evidence or due process—putting nonprofits that fight for LGBTQ+ rights, racial justice, labor unions and more at risk. But here’s the truth:?small actions can create enormous impact. One call to your Senator. One post to raise awareness. One donation to support advocacy. These simple steps, when multiplied, have the power to protect the nonprofits that make our communities stronger.?Now is the time to act.

It's a high stress this week and a lot of us are feeling like there's not much we can do to mitigate the anxiety (especially if we've already voted or aren't eligible to vote). CEOs, leaders, managers, now is the time to: > Remind your team to take breaks, breathe, meditate, exercise or do whatever it is that soothes their nervous system. It's not abnormal that a lot of people are having a hard time functioning this week. > Give them guilt-free time off to participate—vote, support others getting out to vote—and/or let them have space to process the Election and all that comes with it. > Remember that we're not going to know where this is headed for a while. This race is close and we should plan to be in limbo for what will likely feel like a long time. Plan with more softness for the near term. Now is not the time to: > Push your own Election anxiety out on the rest of the team. Everyone is finding their own way to manage—and some just want to put their heads down on the work that needs to be done as a distraction. > Pile on, add deadlines, or schedule meetings tomorrow (or the next day). Believe me when I say nobody needs them. >Be the reason someone didn't get to vote. Ask if there's any way you can support your team or anyone who hasn't gotten to the polls tomorrow. Do you have company values? Consider what they might be telling you about how you should approach this week. If you have other ways you're supporting your team or building a Democracy-supportive org, I'd really love to hear them.

Getting the mental and behavioral care you need can get overwhelming fast. When Texana Center–one of the largest not-for-profit providers in the Houston area—asked us to refresh their brand, we knew clarity would make all the difference. Their community sees them as a crucial safety net staffed by passionate people. We developed a brand identity that reflects that trusted reputation. First: a new, modern logo that feels like taking flight. Then: a cool-toned, flowing visual identity to match. The soft gradients, lines and photography show progress and partnership. The messaging is energetic but grounded—and always putting people first as they clear a path forward. #brandstrategy #logodesign #brandidentity #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth
