Our sons both play high school basketball. Through their experiences we have come to know and love some of the most amazing philanthropists I have ever met. Yes, I have met a lot of great philanthropists in my 22 years in the non-profit sector, but none quite like Jim and Peggy Taylor.
I love a quiet Sunday morning with coffee, a lazy cat, and the Sunday New York Times. During the week I get my news like most people these days, I scan headlines and articles from many of my favorite online sites. On Sunday I take time, fold back pages, and dig in to articles that may have been discarded with a keystroke on a weekday. On November 6th I spent my time with NYT special section called Giving, full of great articles and advice for those working or interested in the nonprofit space.
Spoiler alert! This is not euphoric piling on of post-election elation from a Trump supporter. Nor is it post-mortem chatter about Clinton’s stunning popular vote victory. There is plenty of both going around and I expect most folks are ready to think about something, maybe anything, besides politics for at least a few minutes, days, weeks or even months.
That overwhelming feeling of wanting to help. It washes over you.I know you. You have felt this too. Many of you reading this blog are working and volunteering in the nonprofit sector. You are good people. You are even what we could term professionally good people. You are good people who many times tell yourselves you should be doing more.
Whether you’re ready to expand your organizational capacity and move forward with purpose, or just want to talk shop, we’d love to connect.
