Not too long ago, I had to twist the arm of foundation folks to post comments to my blog, let alone blog themselves. I even wrote a post for the Stanford Social Innovation Review titled Paul Brest Needs a Blog. Starting in November of last year with the One Post Challenge I noticed a shift with more foundation employees posting their thoughts. Now I’m thrilled to see my COF conference blog team filling up so fast. I’m still in need of people from community foundations and family foundations and the team is still open to all comers. But with the new editions today, I’m aware that at some point I’m going to have to close the opportunity. So let me know if you want in. The new team members are:
- Rusty Stahl, executive director of Emerging Practitioners in Philanthropy
- Steve Butz, CEO of Social Solutions
- Peter Manzo, of the Advancement Project and a board member of the National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy
