Hi friends,

I have something exciting to share – I’m hosting a rebranding party on August 14th in Denver, and you’re invited. This is a huge step for me and my business, and hosting this get-together is my way of saying “Thank You”. Drinks from Crazy Mountain Brewery and light snacks will be on me. Please RSVP here if you’re able to make it. 

In other news, I facilitated a webinar with the nonprofit learning lab a few weeks ago on Maximizing Your Nonprofits Data Assets. If you missed it, feel free to check out my slides and the handout I prepared. 

Just last week, I joined as a member of Social Venture Partners (SVP) Denver, a philanthropic group that provides small grants and pro bono consulting to local nonprofits. I’m excited to have an outlet for my pro bono work, and to learn about other nonprofits in Colorado. If you’ve had any experience with SVP, I’d love to hear about it. 

Finally, I’ve been fortunate enough to spend more time reading and writing over the last couple of weeks. Here’s a few things that I think you might enjoy!

I love the Hemmingway App as an editing tool. Simply copy any text and the app will grade your readability. I always find ways to clarify my writing after using it, and it's free.
