Nonprofit Outreach Program
Nonprofit Outreach Program
The Our Promise Nonprofit Outreach Program is a great way to connect state employees with the nonprofit agencies who benefit from their generous contributions. This campaign year nonprofit outreach opportunities will be held in person or through a virtual platform.
The Our Promise Nonprofit Outreach Program organizes two types of events:
- Speaking Engagements—Trained nonprofit speakers can join your meeting in person, virtually or provide a previously recorded video to share their nonprofit agency’s experiences, programs and results directly with employees.
- Nonprofit Fairs—Multiple nonprofits can join your event in person, virtually or provide a previously recorded video so employees can learn about multiple nonprofits and programs at once. Nonprofit fairs are not recommended for all work environments. Please work with your Our Promise liaison to determine if a fair is right for you before submitting a request.
