I’ll be back later this week, but I have left you in the incredibly capable hands of a rockstar set of guest bloggers. The last, but certainly not least, is Antony Bugg-Levine. […]

Social Velocity Summer 2015 Guest Bloggers

July 7, 2015 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

As I mentioned earlier, it is so important to take time away to rejuvenate and reconnect with your passions, family and friends. So I am taking my own advice and taking some time off later this summer to connect with the world outside of social change. And so for the second summer in a row […]

How Do We Scale Social Change?

June 20, 2014 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

This week I attended the 5th annual Social Impact Exchange Conference in New York City. It was an interesting gathering of funders, change makers and intermediaries all grappling with how to reach and sustain scaled social solutions. “Scale” is such a challenging concept, and as I mentioned earlier, there are many entities struggling with exactly what scale means. According to Heather McLeod […]

The Tricky Work of Scaling Nonprofits

May 8, 2014 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

The idea of “scale,” or growing to a point at which you are solving the underlying social problem, is a tricky one in the nonprofit sector and something that is a growing topic of conversation.

10 Great Social Innovation Reads: June 2013

July 2, 2013 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

June was all about attacking some pretty fundamental roadblocks in the way of social change. From the pivotal “Pledge Against The Overhead Myth,” to a new database for all nonprofit organizations, to moving philanthropists from innovators to capacity builders, to ideas for growing the level of giving, it seems June was about putting everything on […]

10 Great Social Innovation Reads: May 2013

June 6, 2013 By Nell Edgington Leave a Comment

May was about the “era of adaptation.” We are living in an age where change is a true constant, and we must adapt. We must adapt how we use technology, give money, get educated, use data, and the list goes on. It is an exciting (if sometimes overwhelming) time filled with opportunity. Below are my […]

The State of the Nonprofit Sector in 2013

March 25, 2013 By Nell Edgington 1 Comment

The Nonprofit Finance Fund (NFF) today released the results of their fifth annual State of the Nonprofit Sector survey. This year almost 6,000 nonprofits responded and the results point to a nonprofit sector that is shifting fundamentally, where traditional funding sources (like government dollars) are shrinking, while demand for services is increasing.

10 Great Social Innovation Reads: February 2012

March 5, 2012 By Nell Edgington 1 Comment

February was the month to learn from other’s mistakes — from Komen to Hull House there was some great analysis about what went wrong and what can be learned.
