Your Team at COF Conference

So we’ve put together a great blog team to cover the Council on Foundations conference happening in Atlanta from Sunday to Wednesday of next week. Besides the Tactical Philanthropy Team, the Council on Foundations will be blogging as will New Voices of Philanthropy and I’m sure the Twitter feed will be roaring (update: the new official tag for COF conference tweets is #cof09. You can follow all conference Twitter traffic via Twitter Search by typing in #cof09. You do not need to be a Twitter user to view updates).

Conference attendance is down dramatically across all industries this year. I’ve found that about 75% of the people who were on my blog team last year are not attending this year due to travel budget cut backs. So I want to make you an offer. If there are any sessions at the conference that you wish you could attend, shoot me an email and I’ll try to arrange for a member of my blog team to write up notes on the session. You can find the full agenda here. And if you use Twitter, follow along with the #cof09 tag and ask questions. Blog team members and other conference attendees will be able to answer your questions or give you feedback.

This year’s Tactical Philanthropy Blog Team is:

    If anyone’s planning on attending the Mission Related Investing: Philanthropy’s New Passing Gear, I’d love to hear insights on recent trends and info on who’s attending the session and what kind of ?s are being asked.
