Our generation does not want its epitaph to read, 'We kept charity overhead low.' We want it to read that we changed the world.

Your ability to stand up for your truth is a muscle, and the more you exercise it the stronger it gets.

When you prohibit failure, you kill innovation. If you kill innovation in fundraising, you can't raise more revenue. If you can't raise more revenue, you can't grow. And if you can't grow, you can't possibly solve large social problems.

Our generation does not want its epitaph to read, 'We kept charity overhead low.' We want it to read that we changed the world.

We have a visceral reaction to the idea that anyone would make very much money helping other people. Interesting that we don't have a visceral reaction to the notion that people would make a lot of money NOT helping other people.

The next time you're looking at a charity, don't ask about the rate of their overhead. Ask about the scale of their dreams.
