On the Lists for Social Change

This week I am just a tad bit excited. Here at givingadvice, I am delighted to announce that my blog, givingadvice, made the Entrepreneurs Common: Top 150 List of Social Capital Blogs. Entrepreneur Commons is a not-for-profit, somewhere between regular business and the non-profit world. This list of Social Capital resources is at the intersection of Philanthropy (where the money comes from originally in most cases) , Fundraising & Social Marketing (How to get it), Non-profits & Social Entrepreneurship (where and how it is spent).

The other blogs deserve a shout out and worth checking out. Here are a few:

Philanthromedia
WorldChanging

Gift Hub
Donor Power Blog
Social Marketing

The goal of 'givingadvice' blog is to inspire and inform readers about business philanthropy, cause related efforts, volunteers and other subjects about social change. Even if one post resonates with you and you begin to think about how you can do something similar through your business to make a difference, I am one step closer toward it's purpose.



Also 'givingadvice' blog , is on the List Of Change, a list of social change blogs. There are about 200 and my blog ranked #123. The blogs listed on List of Change are self-submitted but each on goes through a review before being accepted. To be among a list of other blogs that focus on social change is very satisfying. Here are some of the blogs on List of Change:

Beth's Blog
Tactical Philanthropy
PhilanTopic
Philanthropy2173
BlackGivesBack
The Causemopolitan

Be sure to check them out, stop back here at givingadvice and share it with a friend.
