Soapbox Engage Blog

This week's PUB Crawl is slightly delayed due to expected worldwide Internet outage I assumed would happen when the eclipse passed through the US. Thankfully, people around the North America were able to gleefully post kinda dusk looking skies on social media while tending to sore eyes.

Oh, and a group of awesome NPSP community members rocked out in Montana (see below).

This past week of knowledge from the Power of Us Hub might be a little lightweight, but that's probably because folks are gearing up for NPSP Day events across two continents in the next few weeks. So, let's dive in!

Don't forget, you can have the goodness of the PUB Crawl delivered into your inbox each Monday morning by subscribing today!
