Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

DECEMBER 12, 2019

I started GuideStar India as a project of GiveIndia, as there was no single reliable and comprehensive database of non-profits in India. We wanted to equip users with the tools to choose organizations and projects that matched their criteria or decision set, and to facilitate that, we needed to be inclusive.

Military Assistance Project. My days as an Ally are behind me, but the passion remains: in December of 2012 I found myself on a plane bound for a Tanzanian NGO. Toting my understanding of international development, and my NGO experience, I figured I knew to expect the unexpected. In fact, the NGO was led by them.

We got respondents in 88 countries and the project was done in collaboration with 36 partners around the world. Also, developing countries like Egypt, South Africa, Mexico/Latin America, and India report plans to move to the cloud faster than everywhere else. The survey was fielded in February and March 2012.

Beneblog: Technology Meets Society

JUNE 20, 2004

More stories from my recent trip to Africa. Although Benetech has no projects planned in the area of HIV/AIDS, I was interested in learning more about this. Being part of the Schwab Social Entrepreneur program, I had met Garth Japhet from South Africa, who works in this field, and I wanted to understand more of what he does.

David Barnard has completed six of these grueling races: The Kalahari Desert in Botswana and South Africa (its name is derived from a Tswana word meaning "the great thirst"). David lives in Johannesburg, South Africa and describes himself as a keen sportsman, but strangely doesn't think of himself as a runner.
