Description

At a tactical level, Uncharitable also shows how the question we’ve all been trained to ask to evaluate a charity – “What percentage of my donation goes to the cause?” – is deeply flawed, gives dangerously misleading information, and can reward charities that provide poor service and hurt those that are doing the most good. It also shows how these measures force charities into a fearful and perpetually cautious posture, and prohibits them from pursuing their boldest dreams of a better world. The book also includes a case study on Pallotta TeamWorks.
