Do We Forget to Ask?
Are you a student of philanthropy? Or a student of fundraising?
There’s a difference. Students of philanthropy discover WHY donors feel motivated to support a cause. Students of fundraising learn HOW the invitation is extended to do that.
Either way, every so often we students need to do more than give it a pa...

Happy Veteran’s Day
Happy Veteran’s Day!
I didn’t have the perfect picture to share, but I had this image from a year ago.
This was the Veteran’s Day run we participated in. I love the symbolism here of people running toward the finish. Of working hard, giving it their all, and then finishing together with people they may...

At dinnertime, we gathered together. It was mandatory, and it wasn't just a time to eat. It was a time... Read more of this blog post »

Back to the bad days of the 70's.
A trip back to the cultural and political turmoil of the 1970’s does not sound like fun reading, but if you are interested in American history, and genuinely want to understand how we got to where we are, then MAD AS HELL: THE CRISIS OF THE 1970’S AND THE RISE OF RIGHT WING POPULISM (that’s a m...

Interview with Tana French
Dublin crime novelist Tana French has the kind of critical reviews that other writers would…well, die for. Her debut murder mystery,
