The Democratization of Philanthropy

Amazing TED video (as per usual). I love, love, love what Katerine Fulton is trying to say. Mass Collaboration - "big things are being done for love" (Shirky) Online Philanthropy Marketplaces - peer to peer philanthropy (check out donorschoose.org) Aggregated Giving - every giver should have his or her own fund and foundation (check out acumenfund.org) Innovation Competitions - maybe my favorite! Social investing - perhaps the biggest of them all - this blows up our assumptions business is business and philanthropy is philanthropy Amazing, amazing talk. Thanks TED.
