Our Power campaign funder briefing june 2013EDGEFunders
The document summarizes the Our Power campaign, a collaborative effort led by the Climate Justice Alliance to build political power for frontline communities impacted by climate change and economic injustice. It outlines the campaign's goals of fostering solutions at the municipal, regional, and state levels where leverage already exists. It also lists over 30 member organizations that play roles like national coordination, regional organizing in "hot spots", steering efforts, research, and capacity building. The campaign aims to unite rising majorities toward a just transition through shared vision, strategic alignment, and common messaging.
Alpine Bank was awarded the 2016 24-Karat Gold Award for creating a partnership where it purchased solar panels and donated the credits to a nonprofit to help low-income families. The bank bought 82 solar panels from a community solar garden and gave ownership to a family resource center. This allows the center to provide the solar credits to about 20 families, reducing their electric bills. The bank hopes this model encourages other organizations to bring clean energy and assistance to communities. Alpine Bank has invested nearly $900,000 in community solar gardens totaling over 1,000 solar panels.
Environmental Charities and Advocacy Research PresentationSarah May
The document is a presentation by Sarah May on environmental charities and political advocacy. It discusses the "advocacy chill" that discourages charities from political activities. It then summarizes the results of Sarah's survey of 77 donors that found over half donate to environmental charities and believe they should be politically active. It concludes that charities need not fear losing donors by increasing advocacy and should diversify funding sources beyond government.

Introduction
There are so many parents that can’t afford for their children to go to school these, because it is very expensive. It is also highly expensive for adults as well. There are so many families out there that struggle to put food on their tables, clothes on their back, because time is truly hard. I think every child and adult deserves a chance to excel, and succeed in life. There is one particular organization that helps give everyone in need that chance, and to learn how to be their own person. This organization is called The United Way of Greenville County. The United Way of Greenville is a spectacular organization for a child to be in, to learn everything they need to know in school. It also helps adults get their GED, or high school diploma. The United Way of Greenville’s vision is for everyone in Greenville County to be successful in life. United Way of Greenville’s mission is to bring everyone together as a whole, and to help them learn. They want all of their graduates to be prepared and to find great jobs in the future . The United Way of Greenville constantly challenge their selves to quickly stay on their toes, to reach for greatness, to think outside of the box, and to work together to be able to build success for everyone in Greenville County.
United Way of Greenville’s Net Contributed Income
In 2017, The United Way of Greenville had raised an awesome amount of $16,662,591. In 2016, they have raised about $125,000 less then what they did last year. There were also no more than 1,500 volunteers (Mitchell, 2018). Although the United Way of Greenville is not quite the largest charity in town, they still manage to keep raising money, and maintain an incredibly well net income. United Way raises all of their money so they could help any, and everyone they possibly can to become successful in life. United way is strengthened by all of their supporters, staff, and all of the people they help support. I think The United Way of Greenville constantly keep increasing their number of donors, because if they keep increasing their income will definitely increase as well. United Way has donors that give them a great deal of money, because they believe in them and know they will continue to strive for their community. Any organization should build a good friendly relationship with all of their supporters, as well as their potential supporters. I think if you get in good with them, they would spread the work on how nice, and genuine your organization truly is.

Beyond the First Click: How today’s volunteers build power for movements and ...MobLab
If movements and organizations invest in and cultivate supporters who are doing substantial and meaningful work, then does their reach, impact and odds of success increase?
That’s the question we set out to explore.
We wanted to look under the hood of organizations doing a great job engaging top-tier supporters and volunteer leaders. These organizations are creating opportunities for supporters and volunteers to make decisions and act on behalf of the organisation.
We sought to uncover insights, patterns and best practices that we could share with our colleagues in the nonprofit sector.
We interviewed 35 organizations and experts in eight countries. Beyond the First Click is a project of Capulet, Change.org and the Mobilisation Lab at Greenpeace.

The document provides guidance for organizing a Walk for Water event to raise awareness and funds for Water Mission's work to address the global water crisis.

The document discusses the need for new kinds of leadership to address increasing diversity and participation.
