Disrupting Philanthropy
Technology is changing how we work, play and give.
Lucy Bernholz and the disrupting philanthropy team say: Information networks—the Internet primarily, and increasingly SMS (text-messaging) and 3G (smart-phone) cell phone technologies—are overturning core practices of philanthropic foundations and individuals. Enormous databases and powerful new visualization tools can be accessed instantly by anyone, at any time. A decade of experimentation in online giving, social enterprise, and collaboration has brought us to a place from which innovation around enterprise forms, governance, and finance will only accelerate.
