Greetings:

Would you like to participate in a movement to empower citizens to give back to your community by serving on Boards and Commissions in your city and to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in Hampton Roads? Join the United Way of South Hampton Roads Project Inclusion Leadership Development Class of 2023 with the "Empowering Citizens Forum" scheduled for May 16, 2023, from 6:00 pm-8:00 pm at Norfolk State University Brown Hall. This event is designed to help you connect with like-minded individuals who share your commitment to serve on Boards & Commissions that govern which streets will be paved, which neighborhoods will parks be built, where businesses will be opened, and more decisions that impact our everyday lives.

The objective of this forum is to learn from subject matter experts such as Angela Reddix, CEO/Founder of ARDX, Dr. Adale Martin, Chair, Norfolk City Public School Board, Leonard Remias, City of Norfolk Military Affairs Liaison, Jimmy Gray, City of Hampton Vice Mayor, and Ed Hopper, President of Altor Processing Systems. You will gain valuable insights, skills, and knowledge regarding the value of service and using the appropriate strategies to enhance board & commission appointments. You will create a culture of respect, trust, and belonging in your community and the opportunity to network with experts, leaders, and peers from different backgrounds and perspectives during the pre-forum reception. Whether you're just starting or have experience in board service, this forum is for you!

Take advantage of this chance to be a part of a historic movement that will shape your future and the future of your community. Empowering Citizens Forum is the Force; Service is the Goal; Diversity & Inclusion is the Way. Empowering Citizens is more than a forum. It catalyzes the creation of a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive community.

It is a disservice to your organization and the grant writing strategist to send grants that are due less than a week.

Grants need time to be put together and no amount of finesse in wording will help If your SMART goals are not on point and you’re missing your line item budget.

Nonprofit organizations and small business owners must learn the grant process to ensure they have everything the strategist needs!

I am a Revenue Generating Strategist, not GOD!

Business owners and nonprofit founders:

GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY!

You’ve asked people to be on your board and committees for a reason. Let them do the job they are the subject matter experts!

If you try to do everything or hold information from those you trust to help with your mission or business plan, your business or organization is going to fail!

TRUST AND DELEGATION IS KEY!

Everyone experiences it at some point and time. Thwarting the feeling is going through a growth state by separating your feelings from fact, stop comparing yourself to others, talk it out with yourself, others, or a psychologist or psychiatrist.

Impostor syndrome, also known as impostor phenomenon or impostorism, is a psychological occurrence in which an individual doubts their skills, talents, or accomplishments and has a persistent internalized fear of being exposed as a fraud.

Business owners and nonprofit organizations, be very careful with the funding sources you inquire about.

Not every business is GOOD business!

Offers of free money from government grants are scams.

People do not understand! My business does not make money or support my life with free advice.

If you will not do what it takes to get your business or nonprofit started, that’s what I’m here for.

Just don’t ask for freebies when what needs to be done is more than what you can handle!

The business entity, license, trademarking, and copyrighting is not a game in these Entrepreneurial streets! Don’t have to go to these lengths when someone is telling you why and how to do it.

PROTECT YOUR BRAND!
PROTECT YOUR BUSINESS!
