Celebrating Black history isn’t a once-a-year moment; it’s a year-round movement. Honoring the leaders, creators, and change-makers who’ve shaped (and keep shaping) our world means learning, listening, investing, and showing up in real ways every month. 🖤

In observing Martin Luther King Jr. Day this coming Monday, we are reminded that progress is built through everyday choices, how we treat people, how we listen, and how we show up for our communities.

At Buzzbold, we honor Dr. King’s legacy in the way we work: partnering with mission-driven teams, building systems that reduce barriers, and helping organizations serve people with more care, clarity, and consistency.

If you’re able, make it a Day of Service, and if not, a day of intention. Small actions add up. 🧡

Slack just rebuilt Slackbot, and for nonprofit operations and fundraising teams, this is one to celebrate. 🎉

The all-new Slackbot acts like a personal AI agent inside Slack, helping you turn channel noise into clear briefings, crisp next steps, and ready-to-send drafts (donor updates, leadership recaps, campaign coordination) without bouncing between tabs.

If you’re using Salesforce (especially Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud, now ), this is a meaningful step toward keeping fundraising work in the flow of conversation.

➡️ We broke down the new value, practical nonprofit use cases, and what it can unlock when paired with Salesforce in our latest blog. Give it a read and meet with our solutions team to explore what this could look like for your org!

Between donor updates, campaign coordination, board requests, event logistics, and internal handoffs, your day can disappear into the work of work: catching up on threads, hunting for files, rewriting the same summaries, and piecing together decisions that live across channels. Slack just rebuilt Sl...

We’re carrying this momentum into 2026 with more learning, more connection, and more outcomes that matter.

Happy New Year from Team Buzzbold! 🎊
