About The Tactical Philanthropy Blog

Sean launched the Tactical Philanthropy blog in 2006. Over the years it has evolved into a hub of debate for philanthropy issues. The vibrant Tactical Philanthropy community of readers is made up of foundation professionals, nonprofit employees, energetic college students, major donors and a host of people working in the for-profit sector with a mission to drive social impact. Over the years the blog has emerged as one of the most influential in the sector. Tactical Philanthropy is Sean’s personal blog.
