Welcome to this week's edition of THE BUZZ! In this edition, you will find: Season of Giving is now, the latest sgENGAGE podcast, upcoming events, featured jobs, helping out your fellow community members to earn bonus points in community, and more...Happy Wednesday Community,
The Season of Giving is Underway!Our annual Season of Giving campaign is rolling into week 2! So far, we have awarded the limited-edition badge for this campaign to 6 Blackbaud Community members. And YOU still have a chance to earn it.
There are only 3 steps:
- Give back task #1: ask a question or start a discussion sharing your favorite product tip/trick.
- Give back task #2: answer an unanswered question in your product(s) community and/or mark your questions as answered.
- Give back task #3: freshen up your profile picture, update your bio, and/or change your cover photo.
These tasks go a long way in continuing to make Blackbaud Community a friendly, useful site and will help others connect with you in a more meaningful way!.
You must complete all three tasks by 6:00pm ET on December 21st in order to earn the badge. We’ll be awarding the badge on a weekly basis (every Friday afternoon), so the sooner you complete these tasks, the sooner you’ll have the badge!
And stay tuned because in the coming weeks we will also have bonus point opportunities for all new badge holders!
Listen Up!In this latest edition of the sgENGAGE podcast, meet Alex Budak, UC Berkeley faculty member and author of
Becoming a Changemaker, as he joins Blackbaud’s Rachel Hutchisson to discuss how to develop your mindset and leadership skills to make positive change as part of our CSR Book Club Series.
