Peak Performance Philanthropy: Outstanding idea?! ... Let the donors select the research projects to fund
http://peakperformancephilanthropy.blogspot.com/2010/05/outstanding-idea-let-donors-select.html
Tuesday, May 4, 2010. Let the donors select the research projects to fund. For the 30 years I've been in community benefit work, the conventional wisdom of non-profit voluntary health organizations (like American Heart Association. Where I worked for 21 years, or March of Dimes. Plus, the financial accountants put down any effort to attract this kind of support. Their reasoning: the cost of tracking all of this and making sure a specific gift went to a selected project . well, that outweighed any...So, e...

Peak Performance Philanthropy: October 2009
http://peakperformancephilanthropy.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 19, 2009. How to ask for a gift . Here's a video snippet. From the HBO show, Entourage. Matt Damon and Bono are featured as they ask Vince (played by Adrian Grenier) to make a gift to their favorite cause (a children's hunger charity). Now I wouldn't actually suggest you ask the way Matt Damon does here, but there are some lessons embedded in the video. Total absence of call reluctance (since he believes in his cause, Matt Damon asks everyone! Persistence and the importance of follow-up.

Peak Performance Philanthropy: Facebook Beats Google as Most Popular Web Destination
http://peakperformancephilanthropy.blogspot.com/2010/03/facebook-beats-google-as-most-popular.html
Tuesday, March 16, 2010. Facebook Beats Google as Most Popular Web Destination. Guess it had to happen, and it did, last week. Hitwise figures show Facebook's national domination as the most popular U.S. web destination. For the week ending March 13, Facebook grabbed 7.07 percent of all U.S. web traffic, barely beating Google's at 7.03 percent. Compared to the rise of social games on Facebook (like Farmville and Mafia Wars), there was little happening at Google to encourage traffic growth. Helping you un...

Peak Performance Philanthropy: September 2009
http://peakperformancephilanthropy.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 23, 2009. 100 Days Left In 2009. Yesterday, the autumnal equinox arrived. The Earth on its tilted axis was at the point where day and night were precisely the same length at the equator. In no time at all, it will be the winter solstice, the longest day of the year. Earlier this year, in January, you probably made some resolutions to yourself. Today, with just 100 days left in 2009, you might find yourself with unmet goals and unfulfilled promises. Commit now to focusing on that outc...

Peak Performance Philanthropy: August 2009
http://peakperformancephilanthropy.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 24, 2009. When will things start looking up? How will you know? So there's lots of chatter about hints of recovery in many economic indicators. Maybe we've reached a turning point? Let's look at some of the data. New home sales up 9.6% between June and July. (Sales of existing homes also up, 7.2%). Consumer confidence, especially expectation of where we'll be in six months, rose in August to the highest level since December 2007. But what does this mean for philanthropy? To stay ahead of t...

Peak Performance Philanthropy: April 2010
http://peakperformancephilanthropy.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 23, 2010. Key attributes for charity success. On the heels of the recession, our sector is poised for changes. Some of it will be self-initiated and embraced; much will be imposed by realities of new times. Most probably these changes will be reluctantly accepted, if not outright resisted. In light of shrinking budgets, how can community benefit organizations create difference-making initiatives without simply doling out more money? And strengths of values and vision. Lowest on the list:.
