Nonprofit Boot Camp Interview

Promo shot for the Nonprofit Boot Camp with host Jamie Bristow-LavoieIn May I was a guest on Nonprofit Boot Camp with host Jamie Bristow-Lavoie.

She and her team at NonprofitMatch1.com put together a collection of interviews as the Boot Camp and I’m included. There’s also Bob Penna who’s been a guest on Nonprofit Radio.

Jamie and I talked about the importance and timeliness of Planned Giving and Charity Registration. Here’s the audio interview:

That was back in May. Do you feel like I do, that summer is flying by?

I am enjoying it–and that’s reassuring–but it feels like the days have had only 14 hours. I feel like I’m owed time that passed without me in it.

Jamie Bristow-Lavoie, thank you very much for inviting me to Boot Camp! You’re a fun drill sergeant.

From the Association of Fundraising Professionals’ NYC Fundraising Day in June, our panel solved the puzzle for honorees, chairs, hosts and committees, from goal setting and recruitment to motivation and thanks. I was with Sheila Kelly, vice president of development at The Michael J.

Tony and Maria Cuomo Cole a meeting of Executive Women in Nonprofits

Women’s Touching Relationship Stories

Tony and Maria Cuomo Cole a meeting of Executive Women in Nonprofits
Maria Cuomo Cole and me at a meeting of Executive Women in Nonprofits
Last month I was privileged to hear professional women share touching stories about relationships that meant the world to them, from moms to mentors.

I was a guest at a meeting of Executive Women in Nonprofits, part of the New York Society of Association Executives. I interviewed Maria Cuomo Cole, chair of HELP USA, talking about relationships that have helped her professionally.

Then we broadened to a group discussion.

Brave executive women opened themselves to the 30 in attendance revealing how all kinds of relationships helped them get where they are. The stories moved me to tears.

At that moment, I felt I was invisibly witnessing women talking when there isn’t a man in the room. In fact, there were two of us. The other was silent and, as facilitator, I was not.

Of course, I can never be a live witness to women talking when there isn’t a man in the room. But that was how I felt.

Thankfully, it was captured in HD video which you can play below.

Members of Executive Women in Nonprofits, I thank you for inviting me. My special thanks to leader Holly Koenig.

It was a unique, exhilarating morning.
