New Mexico

Issue 005

Things don't seem to change faster than afternoon weather in high desert of New Mexico. One moment, the bluest skies you've ever seen. The next moment...well, something like this.

I've been lucky to escape the humidity Washington DC for the past month, and set up a temporary home in the American southwest. It's pretty incredible to see life flourish in a place where drastic change can seem to arrive at any moment.

That feels pretty similar to our fundraising world these days, doesn't it? As this newsletter continues to grow (welcome new Salesforce community friends!), my hope is that we can keep finding those nuggets of knowledge you need to stay strong through approaching monsoons. We're going to get through this fundraising season together, as a community. I've got your back.

So, without further ado, let's dive into this week's fundraising community contributions and gear up!
