Pork Roll and Purpose

Maybe this all sounds harsh. I really don’t begrudge people their issues. God knows, I have my own. But this just irked me. I guess this little rant doesn’t have a whole lot of strategic advice to offer you all. But before I climb off my soapbox (and out of my navel), I’ll try to redeem myself by stressing the importance of letting donors know how awesome it is to look beyond themselves and help others. Former Domain Group honcho Tim Burgess (who now is a Seattle city council member) was the first person to put it that way to me years ago. It changed the way I thought about fundraising, and I never forgot it. If you haven’t already realized it, give it some thought.
Yeah … right? You’re welcome. OK, rant over. Thanks for reading!
