The Busy Nonprofit Sector Claims Another Voice

In launching this little effort nearly a year ago, I wrote that “I’ve seen firsthand the sweat and effort that go into making [nonprofits] run well.” Extraordinarily dedicated people doing amazing work have helped the sector not merely survive during these tough times, but thrive. I know — the client base for my freelance writing and editing business is largely nonprofit, and I remain a very busy contract worker.

So busy, in fact, that I need to hand off the 501(c) Files to someone who has the time and energy to give it the attention it deserves. This was not a decision made lightly: I’ve had tremendous fun exploring the intersection of nonprofits and business, and my eyes have been opened to a host of initiatives — and to a wealth of passion — that I was only dimly aware of before. Well, it’s time to let someone else step in and explore for himself or herself.

My thanks to b5media for giving me this outlet. The people at that company are exactly the kinds of colleagues you want to have — funny, nurturing, smart, supportive. Make sure you check out the Business Channel’s other blogs — the work being done there is nothing short of remarkable. I hope to return to b5 in some sort of blogging capacity, so do keep poking around b5’s various efforts, please.

Finally, thanks to you for reading. I’ve so enjoyed getting to know some of you online, and our conversations have challenged and enlightened me in all the best ways. I’d love to keep those conversations going, so please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. (See my website for contact info.)

And keep those missions alive, wouldya? | 501(c)
