2023 Meeting Schedule

(as of January 12, 2023 – Schedule may be subject to change)

January: Colorado Gives Day Recap

Wednesday, January 25 from 12-1:30pm at the American Mountaineering Center

How was your Colorado Gives Day? Were you able to meet your goal? Did you fall short? Why do some organizations bring in huge numbers of donations while others struggle? Usually, we start talking about how to get the most out of Colorado Gives Day a couple of months before the day. But this year, we’re tackling the subject while it’s still fresh.

Join Jordan Brown of the The Community First Foundation, as well as Len Matheo of Miners Alley Playhouse, to talk about the most recent Colorado Gives Day (2022). What worked and what didn’t? How did the changes to the Colorado Gives platform affect us all? How can our organizations come up with a plan to maximize the day itself as well the Colorado Gives Day platform, not just on Colorado Gives Day, but throughout the year? Bring your stories, your questions, your suggestions!!

“I moved to the Golden area in mid-2019 to lead the Colorado Railroad Museum. Within just weeks, I was introduced to the Golden Executive Directors Roundtable and was pleased to participate in several meetings. Although the pandemic affected the organization unavoidably, it also has led to some helpful introspection and positive changes for this group. I’m excited to be accepting the torch from Kim Mangle, who has worked tirelessly to bring us all together for the good of our organizations and ultimately, our community. I look forward to working with all of you, some of Golden’s finest, as we continue to focus on networking and learning opportunities to help us all reach our full potential!”

Paul Hammond

Executive Director, Colorado Railroad Museum

About the Golden Nonprofit Leadership Roundtable

Vision

A visible, thriving and synergistic nonprofit community that inspires engagement and improves quality of life.

Mission

To create opportunities for collaboration and networking, foster connections between nonprofits and the larger community, and provide professional development for nonprofit leaders located in and/or serving Golden.

History

The Golden Nonprofit Leadership Roundtable (GNLR) was founded in February 2018 by Kim Mangle, a local resident and nonprofit consultant. She worked with Connects Workspace and the Golden Civic Foundation to conduct a needs assessment of Golden-area nonprofits in late 2017. The findings indicated that nonprofits desired more ways to connect with one another and to the larger community. The GNLR now includes numerous nonprofits and community partners, located in and/or serving the Golden community.

Since then, the focus has grown to include everything from program evaluation, financial management, advocacy, and meeting facilitation, to board governance, succession planning, and engaging the next generation.

The GNLR holds monthly meetings that provide networking, collaboration, and professional development opportunities.

Leadership

The GNLR is led by a volunteer Steering Committee of local nonprofit leaders, with the financial support of the Golden Civic Foundation, that is committed to help create opportunities for collaboration and networking, foster connections between nonprofits and the larger community, and provide professional development for nonprofit leaders located in and/or serving Golden.
