Oh what an experience I had representing UDOFoundation at the Nigeria Network of NGOs annual conference 2025!

Themed Advancing Solutions and New Institutional Support for the Nonprofit Sector, I learned so much from the panel sessions and here are my best takeaways by the panelists.

1. Nonprofits should leverage volunteers. Volunteerism brings about ownership.

2. The biggest issue when it comes to collaboration across sectors is trust. That must exist between all actors; private, public and the nonprofit sector before strategies can be put in place.

3. Document the true impact of the work you have done. No one else should tell your story better than you.

4. Think of a funding strategy from the get go. Not waiting until you realise that you need funding.

5. Giving to nonprofits can be in 3 ways; Time, Trust and Talent. Let's not always focus on money!

6. If running your NGO is becoming burdensome, close shop! (this really made me laugh)

If you are a nonprofit leader, I recommend that you register your organisation with the NNNGO. These meetings are some of the blessings we enjoy.

Thank you to the speakers for sharing such deep insights and the NNNGO team for an amazing program put together. Special thanks to Mr. Oyebisi Oluseyi, Executive Director Nigeria Network of NGOs for his consistent support.

Here's to greater impact 🥂
