Last week, I had the pleasure of working with a group of Population and Reproductive Health grantees from Pakistan on a peer learning group called “ The NetworkedNGO ,” based on the ideas in my book, The Networked Nonprofit. The four-day intensive face-to-face training was for senior level staff and their social media staffers.
Over the past 18 months, I’ve been participating in The Network of Networked Funders , a community of practice for grantmakers facilitated by the Monitor Institute.

I designed and facilitated “ A Global Conversation: Free Agents and Nonprofits in a Networked World ” at the SXSWi Interactive over the weekend as an opportunity to experiment with some of these ideas. As many of you know, I’m comfortable with public learning, so using this post to share what I learned. My takeaways: 1.
Nancy White recently blogged about a tool called ChipIn which is designed to simplify the process of connecting with people in your social network to collect money for a personal cause, to purchase a gift, or for community fundraising. The Omidyar Network has launched team-based collaborative funding projects.
I also want to thank Ken Goldstein for sharing with his network on YouTube. I created some template language to cut and paste into emails, skype/im pings, and thank you messaging, etc. I pinged some nonprofit technology and cambodian blogger colleagues via skype or email, asking for campaign advice. What do you do?
She called blogs, wikis and Skype/VoIP, “technology with heart,” tools that allow people to help one another and to, “give real information, in real time, with real voices.” You don’t have to create a nonprofit or NGO. As I was leaving, the group began discussing how to create a BlogHer Relief Network--I hope it happens.
