Hi Nonprofit Community! 👋 Weekly Roundup - Friday, Oct 24

TL;DR:

Dreamforce recap links are here! Check out the upcoming 'Dreamforce 2 U' in-person events, a 

ton of new webinars (especially on Volunteer Management & AI), and a huge round of community shoutouts!

Ok, diving right in...

Wow, we're still just one week out from Dreamforce (doesn't it feel like a lifetime since then!?), it was SO great to see so many of you last week in person! For those who couldn't make it, don't worry, you can catch up virtually or in person (see below). 

To help you cut through the noise, we compile this list of highlights and upcoming events for you each Friday. Think of this as your weekly roundup! Be sure to follow and join the groups most relevant to you. 

NOTE: I want to ensure our folks outside the US are aware we have a lot of resources for you too! I'm going to try and highlight more when they are non-AMER (aka in our Asia Pacific (APAC) or Europe, Middle East, Africa (EMEA) regions) by adding timezones below, like AEDT and GMT. I'm experimenting with ways to get all the good resources out to you all, but there's a LOT so ya, bear with me :) holler in the comments if you have ideas or feedback!
