The Giving Carnival: Edition One

I’m on vacation this week. This post originally appeared on January 23, 2007. This first edition of the Giving Carnival brought together many of the philanthropy bloggers. Bill Schambra created a panel discussion at the Hudson Institute about aligned investing after reading the Giving Carnival posts and invited Allison Fine and Lucy Bernholz to sit on the panel.

I’ve morphed the Giving Carnival into my podcasts, but if any other philanthropy bloggers want to revive the Giving Carnival in its original format, let me know and I’d be happy to hand it over.

The Giving Carnival: Edition One

Welcome to the first edition of The Giving Carnival. The topic of this edition is the debate surrounding the LA Times coverage of The Gates Foundation investment policy (you can read the two part article here and here).

Thanks to everyone for sending in your submissions. The response was so positive that I’d like to make The Giving Carnival a bi-weekly event. This is going to be a traveling carnival meaning that future editions will be hosted by other Giving Blogs in addition to being hosted here.
