Welcome back to 9️⃣ Nonprofit Trends that Matter in 2024 Series! How does a movement begin? Simple - with one person. Gone are the days of 'build it and they will come.' True community is about co-creation, about building alongside people. Finding solutions together not only propels your mission forward but also cultivates believers who won't let you fail. Today, we're thrilled to have Brady Josephson, VP of Marketing & Growth at charity: water, as our special guest. Brady leads a team of storytellers, creatives, and marketers responsible for growing, supporting and celebrating the charity: water community and their impact. Join us as we dive into why we need a new approach to generosity 💡
