Cause Collective hosts several networking events throughout the year to help members get to know each other and learn about other nonprofits in Lincoln. Visit our events page to find the next one!

With the help of KZUM Radio - 89.3 FM, Cause Collective launched their own radio show to highlight its members and educate the community at large about the great things all the nonprofits in Lincoln are doing.

Tune in Mondays at 11:30am to listen and learn about what's happening in your community.

The Collaborator  is Cause Collective's free member newsletter, open to all employees and board members of member agencies. It is published every 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month, and contains information from Cause Collective members. We encourage all employees and board members of Cause Collective members to sign up to hear about what is happening with nonprofits in Lincoln.

The Connector  is Cause Collective's newsletter for any nonprofit staff within Lancaster County to learn about events, activities and all news about how we help our members.  It is published every Tuesday and will also serve as the member meeting email reminder the week prior to the meeting.
