Community Happenings: July 25 2017

Hi Community!
 
Do me a favor. Turn on your speakers, turn up the volume, and click here to celebrate!
 
Of course, feel free to skip those pesky commercials.
 
Why? YOU DID IT! Seventeen of your fellow community members have submitted blogs for the bbcon contest! I couldn’t be more thrilled. This community manager’s heart swelled with pride when I saw the finished posts.  
 
Please cheer your fellow community members on by reading these amazing blogs and vote for your favorites by Friday, July 28. The top two posts will win passes to bbcon 2017.
 
Alright, if you’re done chair dancing, let’s see what’s happening in the Community:
 
Make an Appearance

• Using Luminate Online and haven’t logged into Luminate Beta yet? Check it out and be entered to win a $50 gift card from your teams.
• There were changes for Luminate CRM this past weekend. Head over to the blog to stay in the know!

Stay Informed

• Learn what’s happening at bbcon 2017 for our corporate foundations with these dedicated resources right here in the Community.
• Hear from a fellow organization, P.S. Arts, about their fundraising success where they tripled their initial goal and added 700 potential new donors to their database.

Get Involved

• Would you get rid of maiden names in Raiser’s Edge NXT? Join this name format changes discussion to share your opinion.
• In my eyes, each of you wear superhero capes and are changing the world for better but we know it can be hard to see the results so share what keeps you going and help inspire others. 

Alright, my favorite Community, that’s it for now. Read those blogs, celebrate your fellow members, and I’ll see you next week!
