Jeremy Gregg of Central Dallas Ministries:
The CEO of Central Dallas Ministries, Larry James, has frequently told me:
"Money follows people and ideas."
Mostly, money follows people who can bring those ideas into reality.
Hence, funders need the nonprofit that realizes their shared vision no less than the nonprofit needs the funder. Who leads and who follows when we are animated by a common purpose realized in the nonprofit"s work?
The mission leads, hopefully.

In the spirit of Jeremy Gregg's post, I would ask "Have you built other man-made islands successfully in the past?"

Thanks Jeff. It's the least we can do to drive off the pitch men while Phil is off hobnobbing with the Hudson folk.
Maybe the Tutor will have a drink with us. I wonder how much hell we can raise around the dumpster before he gets back.

Raise money, raise hell, or better yet, with Otafuku, raise our glass of sake high.

It has been removed because you make the same comment over and over and it is not relevant to the conversation.
