Starting a Nonprofit: How to Write a Mission Statement that INSPIRES

Starting a Nonprofit organization? A GREAT mission statement can make or break you. Here are some tips to write an inspiring, compelling mission to get your nonprofit organization noticed. #Nonprofit #Fundraising #Nonprofits

I now work full time for the 501c3 nonprofit I started many years ago and love seeing the social impact we make in our community as we grow. I also have the privilege of working with hundreds of other nonprofits in my area and beyond, and know the power a great mission statement can have on your ability to fundraise, recruit a board of directors, inspire people to volunteer and donate, and more.

In this video I share some of the top strategies for writing a compelling mission statement and review a few mission statements from other successful nonprofit organizations.

If you are starting a nonprofit organization, thinking about it, or know someone who is trying to start a nonprofit, I hope this helps!
