My first-ever blog for @SCommPartners! I write about our #language choices in #communications can be an act of #RadicalLove, with shoutouts to @ZrAlexKapitan, @TheComNetwork, and @allen_tonya.

For #MIfoundations serving #Detroit and #SEmichigan, emergency grants to @Reclaim_Project and other such orgs can go a long way.

You stepped up during COVID; now time to step up in another time of crisis.

Very excited to host this conversation about supporting new #nonprofit practitioners in #Detroit with some great young professionals.

@jlypio35 @CCS_Detroit Thank you!

[Mark Navarro @mnavarrodet]

As my fellowship comes to a close, it's time to start thinking about the next step. I am exploring opportunities in the world of #nonprofit and #philanthropic #communications, #management, or other roles in those sectors, preferably centered in #Detroit.

[Mark Navarro @mnavarrodet]

Happy to share more and make connections with anyone interested. Looking for a passionate, dedicated leader? Here I am! #MIphilanthropy #job #jobs #career #jobsearch
