Unpopular opinion among progressives, and yet money is a useful resource and tool for real, meaningful change. #nonprofits #philanthropy
“even the most radically progressives among us, need to get over the delusion that many of the inequities in our world can be addressed without money. Saying that MLK didn’t have corporate money is ridiculous and inaccurate.”
How nonprofits' and philanthropy's fear and disdain of money is biting us in the ass
Quick reminder: I'm having a virtual book launch event on February 25th at 10am Pacific Time. It's free, open to everyone, and auto-captions will be enabled. Details and registration here.

It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.

Our work is guided by something deeper than check lists and templates; we're always looking inward to reflect and outward toward community. Thinking of everyone working for justice and compassion during these times - we're not giving up.

Happy Giving Tuesday, everybody!
Elon Musk’s charitable foundation grew larger than ever in 2024. But, for the fourth year in a row, the huge charity failed to give away the minimum amount required by law — and the donations it did make went largely to charities closely tied to Musk himself, who is the world's richest man.
Elon Musk’s Foundation Grows to $14 Billion, but Gives Little to Outsiders
The philanthropy has become one of America’s biggest, but most of its giving went to charities closely tied to the world’s richest man.

Had the pleasure of meeting the legend and author, Julia Cameron, tonight. 13 years ago this month, I picked up a copy of her book Transitions and launched my consulting company and have built my facilitation and leadership work with her inspirations. Now I have to write a Substack about it all! ❤️🙏🏻📖

I’m sure I’m gonna get dragged for this, but I think AI is bad. AI has completely ruined Google search and it’s created a lot more slop that needs to be avoided on the Internet.

Why, yes I do have a TBR pile next to my bed. You?
I recently told a colleague that my blood pressure immediately goes down when I enter a bookstore or start a new book, so I thought I’d share some good books that are also useful for these chaotic and difficult times. Plus, they just might inspire some social impact ideas for you, too! — Vicki
