I hope you do not mind if I give a plug? In an effort to not waste resources - human, financial and other - I ask you to please pass on the information about the SAVI conference next week Wednesday, April 22 and Thursday, April 24. The posting is right here on Smaller Indiana by the IUPUIs Polis Center.
Thank you and I encourage nonprofits to attend, network with me and others and learn.
Thank you for reading my post.
Peace,
Dani

We're working out the logistics now with Chase Tower management. Our office is right around the corner at Michigan & Pennsylvania. Lacking a better plan, just drop off your stuff at 101 E Michigan and we'll make sure it gets on the truck.

Thanks!

We're sponsoring The Chase Tower eCycling event on April 22. If you have old computer equipment (anything with a cord ;) - but aren't a tenant in the Chase Tower - let me know and we'll arrange a drop off point nearby.

Hello Everyone. Wanted to reach out to the group and see if any of you can suggest or have any short "kid-friendly" articles I can post in a new "free" children's educational magazine I am bringing to Marshall County mid-April? In recognition of "Earth Day" on April 21st, wanted to include a short article that would encourage our children to "take care of the earth"? Looking forward to any feedback. Thanks,

Hello to everyone !! I have a piece of property at Michigan and Gladstone on the east side of Indy. I am interested in finding a nursery in town that could either donate or be willing to give a discount on me purchasing peach or apple trees and using it for a green space. I would like to get started on my project sometime in April. If you have any suggestions let me know. I will use this space and let the neighbors pick the fruit off the trees for free!
