Open Letter to Napa Non-Profits

Unfortunately last year I didn’t hear about Craigslist’s Bootcamp for non-profits until it passed. Here is the letter I just sent out to all the Non-Profits and Non-Profit service companies I have in my rolodex (err, Gmail history — I’ve never owned nor intend to own a rolodex):

Hi Napa Non Profits,

I meant to send this announcement out earlier. Below is an email reminder to sign up for Craigslist’s Boot Camp — a series of workshops designed to help bay area non profits reach their audiences. The workshops cover a range of topics from strategic planning to locating opportunities in this economy and social entrepreneurship  (you can see all 24 workshops here: link). I think this is a great opportunity for any Napa Non Profit. Please forward this to anyone else you think may be interested.

For more tips on how to make the most of your resources or improve your non profit, you can follow us at: www.atlasbay.com or our twitter account.
