Coldest Night of the Year - Special Charity Spotlight

Each Friday I run a Charity Spotlight feature on my business blog. It seemed highly appropriate to devote today's spotlight feature to Coldest Night of the Year.

Here is what Brian Carney, CEO of Blue Sea Philanthropy added to our recent discussion for our Charity Spotlight feature.

"Charities like MTH exemplify the type of charity we love working with though. Big community involvement. Fun, engaged leadership. A big vision for the future and from our stand point in CNOY, just really great people to work with on this national event. Donna, Lorna - the whole team has been a pleasure to work with. Milton will have a great walk this year again." 

The CNOY scoreboard is great to watch as it goes up every 15 minutes. There is still time to join a team, create a new team, donate and volunteer. Good luck everyone.

I am really excited to be walking tomorrow. Go The Flakes!!! I will be tweeting too using #cnoy16. Please follow and post too. I would love to be able to take part in each one of the 92 walks across Canada.

Charity of the week spotlight

I have begun to do a charity of the week spotlight feature through the blog of my Opencity Inc consulting business. Understandably early on I featured Milton Transitional Housing on Friday.

There will be further exciting weekly charity spotlights coming up and I am inspired by some of the conversations this has stimulated. You can also read more about my recent blog post A new type of social responsibility here.

The recent State of Inbound 2015 report produced by HubSpot identifies that inbound marketing is just as applicable and valued in the non-profit sector as it is B2B or B2C.
