Responds 1: For the response to this conference I would like you to discuss the competitive environment of a chosen nonprofit using the information found in this topic, specifically:
1) A list of five competitors - you may be surprised to find yourself listing nonprofit's with unrelated missions and for-profit entities
2) How philanthropy (the act of giving financial or physical assets to charity) and other sources of funding might be used by your nonprofit
3) What communication medium your nonprofit might use to reach target audiences for Giving Tuesday
4) Would your nonprofit benefit from a partnership with other nonprofit's or would their mission and identity be compromised, such as is happening to the Corcoran Gallery of Art?
Responds 2: I found this article interesting as a way employers are trying to bridge the academic to professional leap and using new tools to accomplish it - take that traditional resumes! For your final response here, please share your thoughts with the class on this article.
