Give A Day, Get A Disney Day

As the nation's largest volunteer network, HandsOn Network has partnered with Disney Parks to leverage the strength of our network - 250 on-the-ground volunteer action centers reaching 70,000 nonprofits - to engage families around the country.

Every time a nonprofit sends a letter, shares a flyer, or updates their website, they are shaping their image in the eyes of funders, partners, and those they serve.  Participants at this workshop will gain an understanding of the foundations of good business writing. They will learn to recognize wordy and unwieldy sentences and basic grammatical errors.  They will consider how to put balance into their writing style and add 'sizzling spice' to their prose.  They will consider their business message and focus on the 'who, what, where, and why' of business writing. 

Who should come?  Executive Directors, staff, board members and other volunteers operating nonprofit organizations in Miami-Dade County. 

Getting there:  Map & directions.  Drivers are responsible for their own parking.  Take the bus or the metro mover to Government Center.

Today's economy has created new pressures for us all.  How are your nonprofit employees holding up?  In a March 2009 Survey conducted by the Center On Nonprofit Effectiveness (C-One) and Donors Forum of South Florida of nonprofits profits providing services in Miami-Dade County, 1 in 3 of the respondents had already started making staff cuts. In contrast, more than half had already expanded their service delivery efforts in response to the increase in demand among existing and new clients.  Clearly, nonprofit staff have taken on the burden of "doing more with less." 

Workshop participants will consider today's work environment.  They will explore  common causes of stress in the workplace.  Methods for preventing and addressing stress will be discussed.  

Who should come?  Executive Directors, staff, board members and other volunteers operating nonprofit organizations in Miami-Dade County. 

Getting there:  Map & directions.  Drivers are responsible for their own parking.  Take the bus or the metro mover to Government Center.
