Dear Foundation People Our Relationship is Fraught

"Dear Foundation People...the truth is, we don't really talk. We in the not-for-profit world depend on you, your foundations, and your beautifully typed checks with a tycoon's name on them; by one recent count, you have $628 billion that you could dole out to us.

community organizing and natural disaster relief, Haiti
