53 Online Tech Events for nonprofit leaders, staff, & volunteers in October 2021

Happy October, Do-Gooders! 🎃

As we move into the beginning of fall, I can’t help but think about mounting pressure as end-of-year giving season approaches. Your nonprofit team may already be feeling overwhelmed juggling all kinds of tasks, like keeping track of donors, managing budgets, researching new funding channels for projects—not to mention planning and running spectacular events!

It can be incredibly tricky to keep your nonprofit engine running at its finest when you’re To-Do list starts to stretch, and you begin to feel like you can’t keep up.

This is just how I’d been feeling lately, and the most surprising thing turned everything around for me. I attended a virtual conference. I couldn’t drop everything to be there—instead, I listened while I knocked out some of the more mindless tasks in my workflow. I got interrupted. I missed some of the good stuff. But it’s crazy how quickly I went from anxious and overburdened to motivated and inspired.

It was as if I’d regained my rookie spirit. Things suddenly seemed more manageable, and I felt ready to take on the world again!

So before you think to yourself, “I DEFINITELY don’t have the time,” think about what a mindset shift may do for your motivation. I can’t promise it will solve all your nonprofit problems, but maybe it’ll empower you to conquer one or two of them! 💁

Enjoy this month’s nonprofit tech events—and be sure to let me know which ones inspire you!

Cheers!
