In 2008, I was honored to be on one of the few nonprofit panels on the agenda. In 2008, I designed the Nonprofit and Social Media ROI Poetry Slam and last year was a panel on crowdsourcing that modeled crowdsourcing in the design and delivery. We’ll pick the brains of people who live this challenge daily in the nonprofit sector.
