Make like a tree: How to grow your organization from the grassroots

Growing your fundraising from the grassroots is best done through the GlobalGiving global open challenge.

It’s a 180-degree about face in thinking – Organizations need to think about faces, and Facebook.

The barriers to development are totally under your control for a good chunk of the funds you need.
