Today I received an email from a previous client letting me know they have established a new charity in the Cancer space and will be looking for fundraising assistance in future. I genuinely wish them well, however do we need more charities and foundations? As someone who works for the NFP world, I am amazed at the duplication of effort, particularly in the administration of such fragmented space. The contradictory point is that the small charities often have a large impact at the grassroots root level. Maybe we need a shared services model that supports small charities and reduces duplication without limiting impact? Any thoughts ? #charities #duplication #consolidation

I can certainly see merit in that. Imagine how much more could be achieved by combining resources instead of competing for them? There’s a very personal reason in most cases for why a charity is founded so I like the idea of a shared services concept so they don’t have to compromise on their personal connection to making a difference.

Interesting idea..a hub of sorts for smaller NFP's to access the types of resources available to a "larger"charity. Keen to see where this concept goes Dan.

I’ve really been trying to pay attention to the NP/NFP space the last year or so. There is a TON of duplication, entrepreneurs trying to do similar things with slightly different missions. Rather than consolidation, maybe we should be encouraging #collaboration.
