@All Dreamforce

3 simple use cases that I know everyone of you has. Can it save you enough time to justify the monthly cost of Elements.cloud ($100/m for all the enterprise features) 

ROI Calc: Divide 140,800 by your annual salary. 

That is how many HOURS in a MONTH you need to save by using Elements to make it worth using. And with the PAYG model, you pay for it month by month. So your commitment is one month - $100. 

So then the question is "What could I use Elements for?" 

This article has 3 simple use cases that I know everyone of you has. And you only need ONE to save you the time. 

WOW! The Nonprofit Trailblazer Community absolutely SHOWED UP at #DF25 LAST WEEK!

You all never cease to amaze - you all truly were the heart and energy of Dreamforce, leading a week-long celebration of connection, collaboration, and shared purpose! 

From breakfasts and meetups, to a Golden Hoodie award, read below for  a quick recap of the collective strength, innovation, and connections made when our community comes together:

💥 Your Community Strength & Engagement

You all drove massive turnout and visibility across the campus, showing the incredible dedication of the Nonprofit Trailblazer ecosystem:

• You SHOWED UP! Our Nonprofit crew drove massive demand for connection, resulting in over 860 combined registrations for the two community breakfasts. Due to capacity constraints we could only host about 230 of you (sorry to all who were left on the waitlist), but know that we’ve requested more space next year. Keep your fingers crossed! 
• Massive Community Meetup: The Nonprofit Community Meetup was a massive networking meetup in the Community Cove, filling the space and overflow zone wall-to-wall with standing room only. GREAT JOB @Marisa Lopez @Melissa Hill Dees @Akash Mishra @Judi Sohn @Rachel Park Brayboy @Clair Lam to being our amazing community hosts! This is a true testament to our community! 
• Community Cove Visibility: You all created a MAJOR buzz in the Community Cove. It was so fun to see you all get excited to see the Nonprofit Community listed alongside groups like Slack, Tableau, and MuleSoft, highlighting the breadth and depth of YOUR communities at Salesforce. And weren’t those collectible trading cards fun? 
• Golden Hoodie Glory: A massive congratulations to @Jacky Noden from Boys and Girls Club of America for receiving the prestigious Nonprofit Golden Hoodie during the Nonprofit Keynote - you can watch the keynote on Salesforce+ and to see Jacky’s Golden Hoodie moment skip to 47:36, WOO! See the full post to learn more about Jacky’s amazing accomplishments - share, comment and congratulate our newest Golden Hoodie recipient #Lifewithgoldie
• Giving Back: The Nonprofit Reception was a smash and included a meaningful Volunteer Activity letter writing activity supporting Love for Our Elders. You all wrote kind, personal letters to seniors to combat loneliness, isolation, and depression

💡 Community-Led Innovation & Connection Hubs

The community took the lead in showcasing open-source solutions and driving collaborative sessions:

• Open-Source Showcases: The Commons Community Breakfast celebrated the strength of the ecosystem and open-source contributions. Community leaders and volunteers demonstrated free, open-source resources, including:
  • @Chris Pifer's Journey through the Commons and at Salesforce.
  • @Silvia Denaro's Technical Collective, which connects nonprofits with junior and experienced admins for pro bono support. Check out the overview video!
  • @Mary Crozier's Grants Content Kit, which featured an AI-created demo for an innovative template system for grant application content @Commons Project: Grants Content Kit
• Community Sessions: The Community Cove was an incredible hub of activity, featuring Nonprofit and Education meetups, community led sessions. Seeing you all show up to support each other, participate in each other’s sessions was truly inspiring! Shoutout to @Paola Cedeno who presented not once but TWICE on her Nonprofit Journey at Salesforce!
• Cultural Collaboration: The annual Bobablazers x Nonprofit Community Meetup was a collaborative event that provided a casual networking environment and cultural celebration with boba tea and mooncakes. This event was co-hosted by the Nonprofit Community Team, the AsiaPacforce employee resource group, and the San Francisco Nonprofit User Group. Always fun getting to support this fun group! @Gordon Lee @Jessica Kwok @Pallavi Agarwal @Rachel Park Brayboy
