SUMMARY:LEARN @ UMC: AI For Nonprofits
DESCRIPTION:United Midcoast Charities’ next installment of our LEARN@UMC workshop series will be held on Monday\, May 12th from 12noon – 1:30pm in the Jean Picker Room at the Camden Public Library. Please note due to scheduling conflicts May’s workshop will be held on a Monday\, not our typical Wednesday. We are really excited about this one! Presented by Patrick Gotham\, Vice President at CCS Fundraising\, this hands-on session will introduce nonprofit professionals to practical ways AI can enhance their daily work–from writing prompts that yield better results to integrating AI into workflows for content creation\, donor strategy\, and more.\n \nParticipants will explore key AI tools and terminology while learning how to build confidence and momentum around AI adoption within their organizations. This interactive session is designed to make artificial intelligence accessible\, actionable\, and immediately useful. Make sure to bring your lunch as this will be a brown bag session!\n \nFree for 2024 UMC grantee organizations. $20 for anyone else wishing to attend. We are expecting a great turnout for this one\, which is why we are moving it to a larger space. Please email admin@unitedmidcoastcharities.org to register. Your registration confirmation email will include a link to a google form with a couple of quick questions to gauge the audience’s comfort level with AI so Patrick can better tailor the presentation and hands-on examples to meet folks where they are – whether that’s beginner level or a bit more advanced.

SUMMARY:Learn With UMC: Goals & Objectives for Grantseeking Success
DESCRIPTION:UMC program coordinator Kelly Carey will offer hands-on coaching on how to write a winning grant application with concrete goals and objectives at 3pm\, February 28th\, at the Picker Room of the Camden Public Library. \nAll around the nation\, funders are increasingly moving to data-informed\, outcome-focused grantmaking strategies. That means that it’s critical for nonprofits to clearly and concretely explain what they expect to do\, and why they expect their activities will make difference to a social problem. \nThis workshop is recommended for anyone with grant-writing responsibilities\, but especially for those who plan to apply for a UMC grant in 2020.  Pre-learning resources and post-workshop support are included in registration. \nThe workshop is free but we request that attendees register in advance to assist in planning. Refreshments will be provided. \nKelly Carey is program coordinator at United Midcoast Charities. She is the primary contact for questions about the 2020 grant cycle and may be reached at kelly@unitedmidcoastcharities.org. \nFill out my LGL form!

SUMMARY:Learn With UMC: Benefits Options for Nonprofits
DESCRIPTION:SIGN UP FOR THIS WORKSHOP \nThe June offering in our free educational series\, Learn with UMC: Benefits Options for Nonprofits\, will be held at the Picker Room of the Camden Library at 3 p.m. on June 6.  This two-hour workshop will discuss options for a variety of nonprofit employee benefits packages. \nNonprofit boards sometimes consider employee benefits an unnecessary expense and avoid including them in their budget. However\, Maine Association of Nonprofit’s 2018 nonprofit compensation report indicates that Maine’s nonprofit wages are stagnant despite a cross-sector labor shortage. Nonprofit employees may be forced to look to other sectors to keep up with the rising cost of living.  A strong benefits package can help recruit and retain the top-quality staff that nonprofits rely on to accomplish their mission. \nLearn with UMC: Benefits Options for Nonprofits will offer the real-life experiences of a local nonprofit’s decision to offer employees benefits. Meg Rasmussen\, executive director of Georges River Land Trust\, will talk about how benefits have affected the trust’s impact as well as the bottom line. Sheila Lowe of Aflac Insurance and Sherree Craig and Abe Dugal of Allen Insurance & Financial will discuss flexible\, affordable options often requested by nonprofits. Dr. Brian Pierce of Megunticook Family Mediine will discuss how the new model of Direct Primary Care can work for employers of various sizes.  UMC staff will share research on which benefits are most desirable to employees. Attendees will learn how to improve their recruitment and retention efforts in a financially sustainable way and leave with the tools to get started. \nThis workshop is free of charge but pre-registration is required. Register here or call UMC at 236-2299 for more information. \nThis workshop is sponsored by Heal Accounting. \nSIGN UP FOR THIS WORKSHOP
