The book argues four main points: 1) that the donor base is more diverse than typically recognized, 2) that Hoosiers were adopters and adapters of ideas as much as innovators,
3) philanthropists and nonprofits prefer networks to increase impact, and these networks 4) privilege middle class and mainstream interests, the often unrecognized benefactors of philanthropy: iupress.org/9780253064141/ho…

For the first time in my career, I examined literally musty files—they were damaged in Superstorm Sandy. I masked up and wore gloves. I feel like that is one more spot on my historians bingo card I can mark off and hope it’s the last time I need to do it.
A minute of wisdom from @HillaryClinton that's really all the inspiration and content needed at a graduation ceremony.
Responding to calls from graduates and guests for a speech, and with a nod from President Bollinger, honorary degree recipient and former U.S. Secretary of State @HillaryClinton shared impromptu remarks with the Class of 2022 at Columbia’s Commencement ceremony. #RoarLions2022

I wrote this piece based on research I did about aggregate giving and the money illusion. Donors think of increasing prices not the decreasing purchasing power or impact of their donations. Thanks @Philanthropy and @stacypalmer for publishing. @Columbia_SPS @CU_SPS_Nonprof
Opinion: Inflation has returned to the U.S. economy, and that is spelling trouble for fundraisers at America’s nonprofits. bit.ly/3I40QVy
I enjoyed this conversation. Thanks Kevin Dean and @momentumnp for the discussion. @Columbia_SPS @CU_SPS_Nonprof

Great thread about Ukraine in global context and the information war in the US. My sense is Biden and the rest of the world's leaders recognize this, which is why there has been such a coordinated pushback.
If you want to donate for Ukraine, this list from @NickDeychak is a good place to look. In addition, I can recommend @funds4disaster fund for Ukraine and the @salvationarmy for crisis response as well.
If you are looking for places to donate to, to help Ukrainians, here is a list from @NickDeychak, in his personal capacity, who besides having long experience at @MottFoundation supporting civil society in Ukraine as a grantmaker, has deep personal ties to the country as well.
Most people instinctively get that rising sea levels pose a threat to coastal areas. The impact of climate change on flooding inland is less obvious but more powerful storms dumping more rainfall will bring more devastating floods.
"As seas rise and the warming climate pumps more moisture into storms, it is going to be more important than ever to make people aware of flood dangers," said @JonathanSury in @USATODAY. @DinahVP ow.ly/Pswl50I0fUP #flashflood #EMGTwitter #climatechange

There are many motivations to give and on #GivingTuesday, nonprofits are appealing to all of them. @Greenpeace stands out with its reference to #SuccessionHBO and #Spitephilanthropy @CUSPSFaculty @CU_SPS_Nonprof @Columbia_SPS
"This is just a different emotion than we want to tie to philanthropic giving usually, but it’s there."
- @GRWItkowski, who coined the term 'spite philanthropy'

#Spitephilanthropy is working its way into campaigns this #GivingTuesday

On Dorsey news: Billionaire founders don't typically get serious about their philanthropy until stepping down from the companies they built. Right now Dorsey is CEO of Twitter, Square and "very involved" in his giving.
That's a lot on his plate...
