2. Suggesting a local nonprofit
1️⃣ Verify that the nonprofit is not on the platform
On your profile, click on the “Missions” tab > “Explore” tab > Write the name of your nonprofit
Is the nonprofit there? Great! Start getting engage with them and encourage your colleagues to do the same! If they don’t have any missions published yet, get in touch with them!
Couldn’t find what you were looking for? Suggest the NGO to your company!`
2️⃣ Suggest a nonprofit
💡 Our recommendation:
Explain the mission and activities of the nonprofit as detailed as possible. What is the purpose and current needs of the nonprofit? What missions could you carry out with them?
If you are already involved in the activities of the nonprofit, feel free to share your experience with your company.
3️⃣ What happens next?
Your suggestion will be sent to your company, which will need to confirm that they would like to get engaged with the nonprofit.
After that, they will send you a link that you can share with the nonprofit to register (for free) on the platform.
Do you need help to contact the nonprofit? Find a template that you can send to them on Vendredi’s ambassador kit.
