Greetings readers, 

This week’s Leadership newsletter is a grab bag. First, the election is now history. But where do we go from here? Nonprofit and movement leaders must rededicate themselves to a vision of a United States that works for all. Next, we check out a new report based on a survey of nonprofits that finds the sector embracing AI, building reserves, and expanding missions. Then, an article by Fair Chance CEO Gretchen Van der Veer explores how funders can help empower and sustain the important work of community-based BIPOC organizations. Finally, remember magazines? NPQ still produces a beautiful one quarterly—and we’re offering a special end-of-year promotion: Buy a gift magazine subscription for someone else and get a free subscription for yourself!

As always, the Leadership desk loves to hear from you, and we’re always looking for pitches and article ideas. Email [email protected]—and/or find me on Bluesky at @isaiahthompson.bsky.social.

Best regards, 
Isaiah Thompson, Leadership Editor, NPQ
