Navigating the Social Services Maze

Valerie Mosley works with nonprofits and businesses to tell stories through documentary photography that inspire hope, educate and connect with supporters. She believes that visual Storytelling is one of the most powerful tools organizations can use to increase social media reach and fundraising results. She has over a decade of experience in photojournalism and a heart for social documentary photography. She earned a master's degree in photojournalism from the University of Missouri, where she learned to tell a story with photographs. Inspired by the social documentary work of the “concerned photographers,” she focuses on making pictures that made a difference, even on a small scale. Valerie's empathy allows her to connect with people quickly, so they are comfortable allowing her to document their lives. Daily newspaper work taught her how to be with people during intense experiences, from the joyous birth of a baby to a community's shock and grief in the aftermath of an EF5 tornado to the ongoing struggle of making ends meet. She believes everyone's story deserves to be told and has worked respectfully with people from all walks of life. She has collaborated with several Colorado nonprofits, including Project Self-Sufficiency, Homeward 2020, and the Colorado Trust.

Why Your Nonprofit Should Care About Storytelling?

Break barriers and build capacity with technology As we look across the global landscape of tens of thousands of nonprofits, each year we see more and more small organizations implementing new ways to make a bigger impact. Many are evolving in reaction to new community needs, government policy change, or a funding shift. Others are completely rethinking their strategy and use of the latest advances in technology. What do we mean by small? On this Podcast, we are talking about CRM implementation for organizations with less than 75 employees. These small but mighty groups represent the vast majority of nonprofits and a big portion of our collective impact in the world. In this Podcast, I’ll dig into how these organizations are leveraging technology to move beyond the barriers that have held nonprofits back in the past. I will explain all the areas of the package called NPSP (nonprofit success pack) offered by Salesforce.org. Today, many nonprofits need a CRM to help them get out of the silos, we are going to explain step by step what needs to be done together. If you consider your organization small but have a dream to make a huge impact, this Podcast is for you.

Her professional experience has ranged from restaurants and retailers to a non-profit organization to large corporations. Her functions ranged from staffing to culture and compliance to a variety of other functions including forecasting, budgeting, operations, and employee relations.Through that, she realized there is a huge need for assistance for businesses navigating all of the complexities of HR laws so that they can focus on their areas of expertise, and still be compliant in HR. In addition to working with clients directly through SimplyHR, I am an HR Consultant for the Larimer SBDC.
