Caffeine and Correspondence with Jessica Lindgren

June 6, 2017 by Paul Prins Leave a Comment

Jessica Lindgren – Founder of Caffeine and Correspondence

Caffeine and Correspondence is a great monthly event in Minneapolis. It helps people connect over the written word. In our conversation Jessica shares about where this event came from, and the impact that writing a quick note can have. It is a great reminder of how easy it can be to care and value others. Caring well for those who support and serve alongside us in our nonprofits is important.

Send a birthday card!
Write to your elected officials!
Tell someone they’re awesome!

There is always someone that deserves a handwritten note.

If you are interested in starting up their own group, or have any questions in general reach out to Jessica – http://galfriday612.com/contact

It’s Here! Your Nonprofit Coffee Break – Episode 0

June 21, 2016 by Paul Prins Leave a Comment

Get your brew on!

You bring your cup of coffee. We’ll bring the conversation.

We wanted to put out a short 30 second trailer for the new podcast to prime the pump. It let us figure out a good amount of branding and tone for where we are heading. Very excited how it turned out!

The goal is to have episodes come out weekly on Wednesday mornings. Hopefully they stay in the 5-7 minute range so they can be easy to digest. Then they can inspire you to overcome the middle of your week. Looking forward to journeying with you.
