New Orleans CityBusiness -- The Business Newspaper of Metropolitan New Orleans: "The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has donated $7.1 million for nonprofits working in the Gulf Coast in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
Officials with Oxfam America, an international relief and development organization that works on solutions to poverty, hunger and injustice, said the donation will be used over the next three years to support advocates of affordable housing and workers rights in the Gulf Coast."

What struck me as remarkable about this --is the “trend setting value” of such a large foundation giving that amount of money for advocacy work--could be the start of a new trend for public policy advocates.
