I am so inspired by the conversations at the PhilanthropySW conference. Philanthropy is embracing new practices, recognizing the importance of equity, and reflecting on the purpose of their philanthropy. #PSWRebuildTogether

The General Service Foundation is a great example of a funder who imbues their values in all of their work. Thank you Robin and Dimple Abichandani for an inspiring chat. Listen to the full conversation and others at ncfp.org/fps/


Thank you LeapAmbassadors! I am grateful to be part of the community!


Thank you Center for Effective Philanthropy for the opportunity to reflect on sector trends. The profound moments of 2020 spurred an awakening in philanthropy, pushing us to reassess the core of who we are — our motivations, values, and priorities. We must head in a new direction. cep.org/philanthropy-w…

Thank you BBB's Give.org and Art Taylor He|Him for the opportunity to discuss the possibilities of family philanthropy and explore how we can mobilize more resources for communities. Families must reflect on how they are using funds earmarked for the public good. heartgiving.podbean.com/e/nick-tedesco…

Thank you Edgar Villanueva for your friendship and partnership. You inspire me each and every day. You are the leader the world needs. Keep keeping on!

Great spotlight on the General Service Foundation and Dimple Abichandani (via Inside Philanthropy). insidephilanthropy.com/home/2021/12/1…

Inspiring profile (via Inside Philanthropy) of Tegan and Brian Acton and their focus on trust-based philanthropy. The Actons support leaders who are seen and heard in their communities, have identified a problem, and are proposing a potential solution. Bravo! bit.ly/3efWazf

The tagline for the The Families and Workers Fund is one that ought to guide us all: 2020 changed everything. Now, let’s change for good. Congratulations to Rachel Korberg and team on bringing funders together to build a more equitable economy.


The future is bright! Thank you Katherine Don and Inside Philanthropy for an inspiring conversation on the next generation of social impact practitioners. Transformational shifts - in the pace and practice of philanthropy - are underway. bit.ly/3fGAsFg

Great article from Inside Philanthropy on the influence of the next generation in family philanthropy. “It was really the third generation, but certainly, the second generation, too, that felt we should broaden our aperture.” John M. Sobrato insidephilanthropy.com/home/2022/4/18…

Congratulations to Katie Smith Milway, Amy Markham, Chris Cardona, and Kathy Reich on a compelling article (via Stanford Social Innovation Review) that elevates the importance of clear values and a commitment to listening in the pursuit of more equitable and effective philanthropy. ssir.org/articles/entry…


Thank you The Forum for the opportunity to moderate the discussion on the Future of Philanthropy with Sara Lomelin, Dwayne S. Marsh, Ann Mei Chang, and Carmen Rojas, PhD 🐜 at #ForumCon22. They asked challenging questions and inspired us all to be bolder.

Thank you Stanford Social Innovation Review for the opportunity to reflect on the future of family philanthropy. Now is the time for philanthropic families to reflect on their purpose, pace, power, and practices.

I had an opportunity to hear Steve Young speak this morning at the Larry H. Miller Summit. He shared an inspiring call to action: quit having a list of things to DO and create a list of things to BE. Thank you Steve for the reminder to show up as our full selves.
