Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

NOVEMBER 20, 2006

Almost two years ago at the first Blogher Conference I was lucky enough to interview and get to know Lisa Canter (we aren't related but I learned a few things about the kanter/canter name from her husband, Marc ). And, we both are parents of two young children. As of today, contributors have helped me raise $381 towards the $750 goal.

I'm a parent of two wonderful children in elementary school. I asked a few colleagues on Blogher and beyond and discovered a few excellent blogs and video blogs that offer advice and recipes for parents who want to make sure their kids are eating a healthy meal. I can always use some help. Need some ideas?
