Meet Taylor Ingles
Hi! I am Taylor Ingles and I am the mCommunity Nonprofit Circle’s #ExpertWithInsights for the month of November.
Volunteers of America, Habitat for Humanity, and the Boys and Girls Club. As I was finishing up my degree, I interned for Arts for Learning Indiana, a nonprofit organization that brings art, music, and creativity to schools in Indiana. From then on, I was hooked. I wanted to support the nonprofit sector however I could.
I saw how organizations with strong missions and commitments to the good of humanity were struggling to function due to their lack of funding, volunteers, and overall operational support, and I quickly realized that I wanted to become a liaison between the nonprofit sector and the for-profit sector to bring that necessary support. Since then, I have served on boards, been a regular volunteer, and become a consistent donor to many nonprofit organizations.

My #Experts Focus
Over my years in the nonprofit sector, I have gained a deep love and appreciation for true partnerships between organizations with like-minded mission and values, and this month I’m looking forward to sharing the benefits of these partnerships - as well as how to form lasting and beneficial partnerships within and without your sector, and how you can use those partnerships to inform your content strategy.
Here’s a sneak peek of what you can expect each Monday in November:

More About Me
I hope to take what I have learned over the last decade and put it toward my own nonprofit one day. I am very passionate about family education and health, and ensuring that all families have access to resources, particularly families in marginalized or lower socio-economic areas who may have little to no educational resources about health and wellness.
When I am not working or serving, I am spending time with my lovely family. My husband is a firefighter/EMT, which definitely has contributed to my passion for health education. I also have three kids ages 10, 8, and 7, who keep me very busy!
When I have a spare moment, I also love to do needlework, bake and read! So please, comment below some book and recipe suggestions for me to try!
