The Dream Share Project

A Dream Shared by Faith Erline

Hey everyone!

I'm thinking that our organization would be a great resource for other nonprofits, especially ones that want to attract a college-aged demographic. Maybe we could offer consulting. To people at nonprofits, we could teach them how to use new media like Twitter and Facebook to promote themselves (without being jerks, which is the key), and provide advertising, website design ideas and writing for them. To people looking to work at nonprofits (i.e. people like us) we could help them polish their resumes, give grant-writing lessons, help them do mock interviews and such, like a career center type of environment, but not connected to a school. I love the idea of hosting music, lectures, authors, etc. Could we maybe include writing groups (November is National Novel Writing Month, for example), and maybe include a used book exchange with our art gallery? That would make me happy.

Love everyone's ideas so far. You are all brilliant and awesome.
