Move From Nonprofit Fundraising to Social Change Financing

January 14, 2021 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

Last week I talked about how to make money your new best friend. That is a mindset shift, which is the critical first piece, but then you need to start to use money in a MUCH BIGGER WAY.  I have said for years that traditional nonprofit fundraising is broken. So broken. Because if you think […]

Make Money Your Nonprofit’s New Best Friend

January 8, 2021 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

This past week has been one of the most trying for our country. We obviously have a lot of work to do to heal our country and fix our broken systems. But I absolutely believe that 2021 is going to be a much better year. In fact, I believe it holds the opportunity — since […]

What Does Your Nonprofit Really Want?

December 10, 2020 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

So, now that you know the power of the word “Yet” to move you from scarcity to abundance, it’s time to start thinking about what you really want. Perhaps the most egregious part of being stuck in scarcity is that you get so used to thinking there is never enough that you lose touch with […]

How to Move Your Nonprofit From Scarcity to Abundance

December 4, 2020 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

In my last blog post, I talked about how making decisions from a place of fear is solidly rooting you in the world of scarcity. And that’s the last place you want your nonprofit and your social change work to be.  Yet, scarcity is such an omnipresent ethos in the social change sector — from […]

Fear is not a nonprofit's friend

Fear is Not Your Nonprofit’s Friend

November 12, 2020 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

I’m not gonna lie, last week was rough. As I know you are well aware, there was a palpable sense of fear and anxiety everywhere you looked. Even my friends in other countries reached out to say they, too, were watching our elections in the U.S. with fear and anxiety. No matter who you voted […]

Let’s Bring Joy Back to Social Change

October 23, 2020 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

Joy is such a foreign word in 2020, right? It feels — especially right now as we await the outcome of the election in the U.S. — that we are surrounded by everything but joy — anxiety, anger, tension, depression, restlessness, exhaustion swirl around us.  But here’s a radical idea for your consideration: we are […]

Overcome Nonprofit Scarcity With Capacity Funding

October 9, 2020 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

I was talking to a nonprofit leader earlier this week who was unknowingly torturing herself. One part of her had a big vision for growing her nonprofit to reach more people and create change to a broken system. But another part of her felt stuck because she lacked so many things to make that big […]

Overgiving is a Nonprofit Disease

October 2, 2020 By Nell Edgington 2 Comments

If this year of turmoil has taught us anything, it is that we need those with solutions to be fully empowered. That means you, social change leaders. In order to benefit from the solutions you offer for the many social problems we now face, we need you to reclaim your power as the social change […]

You Are Powerful Beyond Measure

September 29, 2020 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

There is something that I find nonprofit leaders often forget. And this is that you are immensely powerful. You are, in fact, powerful beyond measure. But there are so many ways that our society attempts to strip you of your power. To name a few: Legal and norm limits on your ability to influence policy […]
