"My favorite part about this course so far has been the learning process itself, I did not know much about philanthropy, foundations, NGO's, grants, impact investing, evaluations, and so much more before I began this class and being able to learn about them has been a real joy."

"I have worked for a number of nonprofits who have initiated new programs or changed part of their operations to receive additional funding and meet donor requirements. Gaining a greater understanding of the donor's perspective is very useful for future endeavors in nonprofit development. Furthermore, I have learned crucial components to exciting, innovative philanthropy practices, including shared value and social entrepreneurship models, that will influence my philanthropic practices.
