Allyn Brooks-LaSure and expert facilitator Keecha Harris, DrPH, RD on the latest episode of #TheRACEPodcast!

Chattanooga-Area friends, I'll be speaking at the Association of Fundraising Professionals Southeastern Chapter April Meeting - come by and say Hi! April Topic: Trust Me! I'm a Fundraiser: Cultivating Trust in a Distrustful World. To move our missions forward, trust is essential. Yet, trust isn’t often at the center of discussions on strategic direction, storytelling, and fundraising.? What does it take - from ourselves, our organizations, and our boards - to build trust with donors and stakeholders?? Together, we’ll discuss some practical tools, some big ideas, and creative ways to earn confidence from your community. Registration link in the comments. ??

Diving into Grantmakers for Effective Organizations (GEO)'s new strategic plan. Here's one spot to linger: "#Grantmakers in the GEO community advance responsive and equitable practices such as providing long-term, flexible support to communities harmed by intersecting systems of oppression; centering community and shifting power in their #grantmaking, capacity building, learning, and evaluation; and fostering equity in internal operations." #philanthropy #FunderListening

Friends and Colleagues, As many of you know, I am a passionate Board Member for Dallas Pets Alive! One of the biggest fundraising events for us is TODAY, North Texas Giving Day. Our goal today is to raise $115,000 so we can continue our amazing life-saving work! If you’re looking to give back, please consider donating to Dallas Pets Alive. Every bit helps and makes a big impact! ?? Thank you for your support! ?? https://lnkd.in/gsZdDbjw More about Dallas Pets Alive: Your support during North Texas Giving Day is not just a donation; it's a lifeline. Every gift you make goes directly to programs that are transforming the lives of animals and their humans. Our Foster and Adoption program is a beacon of hope for the most at-risk animals in our partner shelters, while our preventative programs—like PASS, Dogs Matter, and Bark Dorm—work tirelessly to keep pets out of shelters and in loving homes. These initiatives are not just about rescue; they're about building healthier, stronger communities where animals and people thrive together. The need is urgent. Many of the pets that come into our care have medical conditions so severe that shelters simply can't provide the care they need. Over a third of the animals we help are Major Medical Cases, requiring $1,000 or more in medical expenses. In 2023 alone, we spent more than $400,000 on treatments ranging from basic vaccinations to heartworm treatment and life-saving surgeries. This year, as we've taken on the incredible work of Dogs Matter and face the overwhelming overcrowding in North Texas shelters, the number of animals in our care has more than doubled. For the first time, we have more than 500 animals relying on our programs. While we've made strides in fundraising, the financial demands have outpaced our resources.
