On a personal note, as I looked around the Blackbaud Community to find the most “helpful” pieces of content for you, the word peace kept popping in my head. It is uplifting to see all the peace of mind you give each other by sharing your knowledge, encouragement, dismay, ideas, and camaraderie within this community. I wish you all moments of peace this week.
