Exciting News! We’re launching a new fundraising campaign, and we’d love for you to be part of it: Help us plant 10 million wildflowers by June 30th. We’re seeing an incredibly high amount of interest from landowners interested in planting #pollinator habitat, and we need your help to make it a success. By helping us plant 10 million #wildflowers across the landscape, you are making a real difference for these #pollinators. Your donation will: ??Plant 1 million square feet of high-quality NextGen pollinator habitat projects through our Seed A Legacy and Solar Synergy programs. ?? Provide essential nutrition to support #honeybees, which are vital for our food production. 60 honey bee hives will be supported, which will produce over 4,200 lbs. of US honey. ?? Provide #monarchbutterfly-specific needs to prevent them from becoming endangered, including 100,000 milkweed seeds being planted within the pollinator habitat. ?? Provide ideal habitat for pollinators, native bees, pheasants, quail and grassland songbirds, improve soil, air and water quality, AND enhance #biodiversity while beautifying the landscape.

How do foundations raise funds independently so they don't depend on donors? We're trying several ways, including managing and empowering existing resources, both human and natural resources to generate income. Integrating horticulture and chicken farming, one of which is.

How do we spend the donations that we receive?” Of course, when you are donating to a cause, you must know exactly where your money is going. We are proud to say that 95% of the budget goes directly towards trainings and irrigation technology. This involves equipping farmers with sustainable agricultural training, hand-crank irrigation pumps, and windmills for large-scale irrigation. Only 5% of the budget is used for audits, fees, and raising awareness. We are committed to total transparency – because we are committed to building communities rooted in genuine support.

It's Tuesday so time for trivia! My newest kit is ‘Plant, Pests and Produce / Ngā tipu, ngā kīrerea me ngā hua’. This resource helps to explain some of the science that supports our primary sector producers, like pests and their management, insect communication, the basic parts of a plant and their functions plus droplets and sprays in relation to the application of pesticides or fertiliser. Here’s a few posers related to this kit: ??What’s the difference between a fruit and a seed? ?What’s the difference between a native and endemic species? ??What is the name given to a chemical signal produced by insects that carries information from one individual to another of the same species? ??Why would male insects have noticeably larger antennae than their female counterparts? ??Which KiwiSaver provider and fund manager gives 15% of their fees to their Charitable Trust? #HouseofScience #primaryscience?

Are you a grassroots nonprofit leader or founder looking to make a larger impact? Take inspiration from the Mississippi Forestry Association. Their successful advocacy and awareness strategies are anchored in education - teaching landowners, legislators, and the public about forestry's essential role in Mississippi's economy. As leaders in nonprofits, we too carry a similar responsibility to articulate the significance of our missions to our communities. Collaboration is crucial too. By fostering partnerships, we amplify our ability to bring change! Remember, the best stories aren't just told, they are shared. And the best connections are born from a shared passion and understanding. Let's reach out, educate, collaborate and weave our stories into the fabric of our communities! #GiveHopeDaily #NonprofitCollaboration #EducateToElevate #NonprofitMarketingSolutions

USD800,000. Raised by and for a community-owned sustainable forestry nonprofit in #PapuaNewGuinea. From one progressive European trust. The (relatively) smooth and stress-less process of a TWO-PAGE proposal. A first donation that's NOT from an institutional funder. But that wouldn't have been possible without having walked through the institutional funding fire (for two decades). And a two-year journey to grow beyond the habits and limited expectations that institutional funding shapes. #highvaluepartnerships
