One tip I have (to maybe share with employees doing the nominations) is to pull up the non-profit's 990 (tax form) and see how much they spend on the programs you/they care about.
Some non-profits do unexpected things with their revenue 🤷🏻♂️
One of my most valuable training sessions I've ever attended was about being a savvier donor/volunteer using these forms as a guidepost.
Don't know if you know this, but one of my hopes for the world is to get everyone to give 1% back. ( To charity, to coders, to content creators ).
1% from everyone and every company could go a long way to improving our world.
Thanks for giving back!
