Answering Questions, Educating the Public
Consider all the stories about fundraising costs you’ve ever read. There are two out there I want you to read.
The first is a report by Scripps Howard News Service about how many charities continue to underreport (or not report ) their fundraising costs.

The AFP Blog: Bill Drayton and the Next Generation
The AFP Blog: Bill Drayton and the Next Generation: For many of us this is a hard lesson to learn. For the next generation of fundraisers it's instinctive—hardwired into their systems. Let's have the humility to learn from them.
If you haven't already, check out the Ashoka website and get to know Bill Drayton. When you have, you'll wish you'd done it many years ago.

The AFP Blog: Leadership, Community and Academy
The AFP Blog: Leadership, Community and Academy: Leadership, Community and Academy
Leadership and inspiration are critical to fundraising. We work to bring a community together—in support of programs and causes that will create a world that all of us want to live in.
Leadership Academy captures the best of AFP. Dedicated individuals, all supporting their fundraising community—and the communities they live and work in. We expanded that community in Montreal as the board approved two new chapters: the Capitulo Puerto Vallarta – Riviera Nayarit Chapter located in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, and the AFP Aloha Collegiate Chapter located in Honolulu, Hawaii.

The AFP Blog: Ready to Hire
Excellent column in Forbes on Monday about the nonprofit sector being ready to hire again in the U.S. and encouraging people to consider a job with a charity. Optimism continues to build after giving increased a little in 2010, and charities seem ready to set new goals with additional staff in place.

The AFP Blog
Featuring Guest Blogger Andrea McManus, CFRE
The AFP Blog: Earlier this summer, I had the pleasure of attending the Institute of Fundraising’s (UK) annual conference in London. Part of the great experience I had there was meeting with leaders of different fundraising organizations from around the world.

The AFP Blog: Rankled Over Rankings
The AFP Blog: Rankled Over Rankings: "Rankled Over Rankings
Another charity ranking system is out, this time in Canada: the MoneySense Charity 100 (not currently available online but the 2010 version is here).
It takes a very small sample of 100 out of the more than 85,000 charities in Canada and attempts to take the dozens of factors that affect fundraising costs and compact them down into one all-encompassing, objective letter grade."
