High Tech Helping Hands in Haiti
When a spirit of goodwill prompts our thinking and when united effort goes to work on a common problem, the results can be most gratifying. By joining hands and working together to help this impoverished country we can eliminate the weakness of one standing alone and substitute for it the strength of people working together.
The Power of the Mobile Phone for Philanthropy
The almost universal presence of the mobile phone is making it a powerful tool for the non-profits looking for innovative ways to reach out to potential donors. The power of the mobile phone for an organization lies in the fact that it enables a direct reach to the individual, unlike a website or a banner advertisement.
Leveraging Social Media to Market a Non-profit
The wave of social online media is taking the world by storm. No organization can afford to ignore their growing importance any longer. Websites such as Twitter, Facebook and MySpace have immense reach and power that can be leveraged by a non-profit at practically no cost.
Lesson #5: Stay Focused
“I am a very focused person,” says Combs. “Right now I'm in a real, real strong creative zone. You know, musically I'm in that zone. Fashion, designer-wise, I'm in that zone. I'm in a zone right now. I'm like Jordan in the fourth right now, ladies and gentlemen.” Between all his business ventures, court battles, marathon runs and his family, if it weren’t for Combs’ ability to focus on one important thing at a time, he would have succumbed to the pressure long ago.

Social Media: A Highly Effective Tool for Non-Profits

Don't be a Scrooge. Charitable giving is critical to your community and business
For the business owner, charitable giving can be a challenging subject in business planning. How much to give? Who to give to? Can we give each year even if our company isn't doing as well as before due to the recessionary economic environment? Many questions have to be resolved. But making a commitment to annual charitable donations and involvement and standing by it -- for your community and your employees -- can be immensely rewarding.
Registered charities perform valuable work in our communities.
Donations in the form of cash or gifts in kind made to a registered charity or other qualified donees may reduce your taxes. A list of registered charities is provided on CRA's website. The receipt for your gift should include the value of the consideration given. If you receive something in return such as an event ticket, for example, you must deduct the value of this "advantage", as CRA calls it, from the eligible amount of your donation. The other important thing to keep in mind is that your donation receipt should include the registration number of the charity. Otherwise, it is not an official donation receipt for tax purposes.
How do Churches Cope with the Recession?
Some scoffers find it hard to believe that churches not only get through hard times but that they actually grow in members and tithes and “donations” from existing church members. The press has always been antagonistic towards the Christian church so what I say here will probably be fodder for some good laughs for non-believers, but I will say it anyway. It is not their favor that I seek.
Radiology Job Outlook
Highly paid Radiologists may not generate much sympathy but their world may be changing. The constant rise in their salaries seems to have hit a wall and indeed due to some changes in reimbursement rates they may actually have fallen recently. Health care reform and the recession are already impacting the bottom line negatively. Last year, U.S. hospitals saw more patients without insurance or the ability to pay their hospital bills. Bad debt has risen while donations have fallen.

Why Getting Head Lice Is the Best Thing that Ever Happened to Me
Thanks to donations from my readers, seven Guatemalan students will go to high school, three villages have school supplies, one has a new refrigeration system for soy milk, 60 villagers ate meat, and 140 kids got ice cream. I also think I have lice, but I couldn't be happier!
3 Ways to Organize a Charity Campaign with Promotional Fundraising
Why are charity fundraisers beneficial to businesses? Companies gain credibility when fundraising for charitable causes, especially when charity promotional products are used. Promotional advertising is effective for promotions like dinner fundraisers, sponsorships, gift donations, and community events because both the nonprofit organization and the business receive exposure.
What’s the difference between a member, a client and a customer?
What’s in a name? Well, there seems to be some confusion in the market place around the terminology used to describe those people who pay us money for goods, services, experiences, donations, etc. Different industries can have different terms for the consumers of their products and/or services. We see terms such as customer, client, patient, guest, patron, member, subscriber, donor, etc. used to describe a person who buys our products or services and intends to use them directly. In short, these terms are referring to the same person – the ‘end user’. However, not everyone ‘consumes’ our products or services or is the intended ‘end user’. Some people or businesses buy our products or services to ‘on sell’ them to another party, often the final end user, but not always.
