This is exciting news from Candid for fiscally sponsored programs and projects (that don't have their own EIN)! Fiscally sponsored work makes a huge impact in our communities but before could not get the same visibility as formal nonprofits. Here's what they said:

Good news: fiscally sponsored projects can now get listed on Candid, earn Seals of Transparency, and unlock a free Candid Premium subscription plus other benefits. Candid shares your profile with 200+ giving partners like donor advised funds and Facebook.

To get started, ask your fiscal sponsor to contact us at [email protected].

We'd like to thank Thrett Brown of SolVyr for sponsoring the 2026 Nonprofit Bootcamp in Phoenix, and for donating a raffle prize (must be present to win) of a custom creation of your personal scent (30ml dropper) -- this may be done virtually or in person (in Tacoma, WA).

SolVyr creates custom fragrances, including based on numerology and astrology, helping people reconnect with their personal energy through scent. Each scent is designed from the customer’s birth date and astrological chart, blending essential oils and natural ingredients to create a unique “scent signature.”

SolVyr is more than a scent brand — it’s a social business that believes creativity and self-discovery can be tools for empowerment. With community support, they'll train local young adults in scent blending, brand design, and entrepreneurship — creating pathways into Tacoma’s growing creative economy.

If you only have one day in Phoenix and you represent a new/young nonprofit we recommend our Essentials half-day session. Topics include:

This practical session cuts through the guesswork and focuses on the fundamentals that make-or-break new organizations: building a strong, functional board; developing clear, mission-aligned programs that funders understand and support; and establishing the right governance and operational foundations so your organization is credible, compliant, and ready to grow.

We’re thrilled to welcome Mary Byrne of TRA Medical Imagining as a featured speaker at the 2026 Nonprofit Bootcamp in Phoenix!

Mary is a powerhouse in nonprofit leadership and fundraising such as through her work with South Sound Care Foundation, where she has helped build one of the most successful event-based fundraising models in the region. Signature events like Beer & Bites don’t just perform well—they raise millions of dollars each year, proving what’s possible when strategy, storytelling, and community engagement actually click.

Beyond events, Mary has also led visionary, impact-forward initiatives, including spearheading efforts to launch a new Mobile Mammography vehicle for Pierce County, WA—bringing critical, life-saving screenings directly to communities that need them most.

If you want real-world insight on scaling events, mobilizing donors, and turning bold ideas into funded realities, Mary Byrne is someone you’ll want to hear from.
