Nonprofit Tech for Good

JANUARY 14, 2013

Blogger and LinkedIn both launched in 2003. Handwriting is quickly becoming a lost art form. Thus, for 2013, please: 1) Ask for a raise. Most people who work in the nonprofit sector do so out of a commitment to a cause or passion bigger than themselves or their desire for material things. Good luck. 2) Ask for a social media budget.

The eleventh guest blogger in my have fun do good series is Lisa Sonora Beam. Lisa Sonora Beam, The Creative Entrepreneur: How I Have Fun, Do Good Buy art from artists. One of the most fun ways to do good is to buy art and hand crafts directly from artists and artisans. We eat, sleep and make art 24/7.

This year is the 20th anniversary of World AIDS Day , which takes place every year on December 1 to raise awareness about AIDS pandemic. In 1995, I remember a group of arts organizations and artists on Arts Wire marked World Aids Day/ A Day Without Art by turning the gray backgrounds on our web sites to black.
