Giving large: The philanthropist Myra Kraft forges a new form of engaged giving - International Herald Tribune

Giving large: The philanthropist Myra Kraft forges a new form of engaged giving - International Herald Tribune: "he cherry-paneled boardroom of Combined Jewish Philanthropies is humming. Many of the most powerful and influential members of Boston's Jewish community are gathered to discuss the goals of CJP, a nonprofit that distributed $71 million last year. Four sleek black speakerphones flash green lights as disembodied voices jump in and out of the conversation. Myra Hiatt Kraft, a pair of spectacles dangling from her teeth, is sitting at the center of the action, in the familiar position of chairwoman of the board."
