What is Blue Avocado?
Nonprofits helping nonprofits succeed.
Blue Avocado is an online magazine with hundreds of articles written by nonprofit leaders, for nonprofit leaders.
Just like you, Blue Avocado authors are experts in their fields, representing a wide range of practitioners, funders, and specialists that simply want to share their knowledge and experience to help other nonprofit leaders be successful.
Do you have something to share with your nonprofit peers? Here’s how to submit an article to Blue Avocado.
It’s free.
Like the information it provides, Blue Avocado is priceless.
You can also sign up for a free weekly email newsletter summarizing the latest article, so you never miss a beat.
Blue Avocado authors have walked the walk.
Outside experts are rarely shy about telling nonprofits how they ought to be doing things — whether or not they have any actual experience in the nonprofit sector.
Blue Avocado serves as a forum where the people sharing knowledge and wisdom are people who have actually lived the nonprofit experience, that understand what it means to navigate the hurdles and pitfalls of running a community nonprofit.
As a nonprofit leader, you’re always working to become better, smarter, more efficient, more effective, and do more with less.
Blue Avocado is the place to share and help others do the same.
You’re not alone.
We live in an increasingly complex world. Doing all the things you need to do to successfully run a nonprofit can be overwhelming for anyone.
But you’re not alone. Plenty have walked the path and are willing to share their knowledge with other nonprofit leaders.
Blue Avocado has an archive of hundreds of experts’ articles on all types of nonprofit issues. If you’re looking for something, it very likely may be here already!
Nonprofits can only be vibrant, healthy, and effective when they have access to financial resources and practical know-how shared by experts and peers.
Welcome home.
Simple and direct.
At home, you don’t use fancy language. Blue Avocado doesn’t speak in abstract jargon that dominates our sector and deadens our senses. Apologies in advance if some of the pieces are overly blunt or direct — but that’s family.
Above all, our aim is to provide practical information and insights that are easy to understand, easy to implement, and that improve your effectiveness and impact.
Share your knowledge: Submit your article or pitch.
One of the best ways to serve your community is to share your knowledge and experience with the wider nonprofit community.
