Four sentences...

The four sentences that lead to wisdom: “I’m sorry. I was wrong. I need help. I don’t know.” ~ Louise Penny, “Bury Your Dead”, 2010 http://ow.ly/ATltB

Walt Whitman Quotation

The genius of the United States is not best or most in its executives or legislatures, nor in its ambassadors or authors or colleges, or churches, or parlors, nor even in its newspapers or inventors, but always most in the common people. - Walt Whitman, born 31 May 1819

Happy Memorial Day

Please take some time today to reflect on the sacrifices made by our heroes to protect the Freedoms that we exercise routinely and take for granted. Thank a Vet for her/his service and offer up a prayer of thanks for those Heroes who died on the Battlefields of the world.
Happy Memorial Day and God Bless America!!!

Introduction

Welcome to this rather officious sounding blog. With 25 years of experience working with and for various nonprofits, from grassroots to national organizations, I want to share with you, readers, what I have learned. And, I just may learn something new in the process, as well.
Keep "tuning in" for posts and discussions on all matters related to the nonprofit: fundraising, special events, marketing, best practices, ethics, et cetera.
Thanks!
