Community Happenings: Let's Celebrate!

Published

Hi Community!

Last week, Crystal Bruce & I noticed we hit a huge Community milestone – we reached 50,000 members!!!

We nearly fainted and then realized we needed to celebrate! This week we’re bringing back our favorite: chair dancing. Turn up the volume and celebrate with us!

Can’t see the video? Here’s the link: Community Hits 50,000 Members!

To get you in the groovin' mood, your fellow community members created a “50K Celebration Playlist” that we’re sharing far and wide. Even your Blackbaud teams will be listening as we stream the playlist at our offices. Think a song is missing? The playlist is collaborative - add your suggestions!

From both of our little community manager hearts – THANK YOU for being part of the Blackbaud Community! Let's rock this year!

Now onto the Community:

Make an Appearance

From Atlanta, Georgia to Seattle, Washington, check out the several user roadshows and user groups available in our Best Practices Community.

Stay Informed

Get the most out of your Raiser’s Edge Campaigns with this Tips & Timesavers blog that details what you should do to be successful.

Get Involved

Heading to Seattle for the K-12 User Conference? Check out the brand-new K-12 User Conference Community to connect with others and more before the conference.

Alright favorite Community, I can’t end my post without a nifty prize since we’re celebrating a huge milestone. Comment below and tell us about your favorite part of the Blackbaud Community. I'll do a random drawing for a prize from me!

See you next week, Community!

Making all kinds of new connections - my new favorite part of the Community is finding out how many of us are cat people, like my new friend Kristina Wheelock and others I come in contact with since the Quests have started.

I'm new to the community and to the E-tap software Shannon, but my favorite thing about this community is that I have a place to interact with other professionals who are working with the same software and dealing with the same challenges. Oh, and it is a great way to start my day to see the messages in the morning! Ms. Potique "Tiki" Johnson
