This month’s Nonprofit Blog Carnival is all abut inspiration and Innovation. Read all of the posts for your own inspiration.
I especially enjoyed these thoughts from Ann Goldman, who says the light of the summer is a good time to reflect on our work:
Independence Day is a great time to remind ourselves that fundraising is about helping people exercise their freedom.
Giving is one of the most deeply satisfying acts that free citizens enjoy. It is an expression of our values and gives voice to our most deeply held convictions.
Giving isn’t just about charity. It’s about freedom and civil liberty. It’s about the “dangerous unselfishness” that Martin Luther King, Jr. called for when he urged us to act not just for ourselves but for our oppressed neighbors.
In being free to give, we are free to change the world.
