Every month or so I interview a philanthropist and tell their story. These are people who have been working for a cause for years–organizing, planning, fundraising, and everything else–and they have a lot to teach the rest of us.
With each of these people, I wanted to know why they got started with their work, how they do it, what kind of failures they’ve had, and what they’ve learned from them. I figure if we can all learn from their successes and failure, we’ll all be better off in our own work.
I also wanted to tell their story in a way that would help them spread the word about their programs. Give them a read and let these philanthropists know what you think about their programs!
