Join the private Virtual Leaders Ummah Facebook Group where you host a space that is welcoming to Black, POC, and Muslim nonprofit leaders who may not feel welcome in traditional nonprofit education spaces; whether due to the nonprofit's work, their identity as a minority ethnic or religious nonprofit leader, or the lack of diversity within the space. Our goal is to use this as a place of shared values at a collective level and embody the ideals of the nonprofit community.

These resources are curated by Talem to support nonprofit professionals.
