This month I had the opportunity to attend the North Carolina Philanthropy Conference, hosted by the North Carolina chapters of the Association of Fundraising Professionals.

As a resident of the Carolinas most of my life, I’ve seen my fair share of weather events. Extreme heat, freak snowstorms, hurricanes, and tornadoes are the unfortunate price we pay for living in such a great locale.

I sat down this weekend to watch The Way, an inspiring story about family, friends and the challenges we face while navigating life, relationships, and the world around us.

It is with sad hearts that we share the news of Tom McGuire’s death.

Strong and committed leadership is the difference between a good nonprofit and a great nonprofit.

Friday, during my annual eye exam, I saw an email that caught my eye.

Oil and vinegar. Pancakes and ketchup. Duke and Carolina fans. Some things just don’t go together.

On any given day, if you happened to pull up next to me at a stoplight, you probably catch me singing a favorite tune, certain that my version sounds just as good as the voice I'm emulating on the radio.

It was Friday at 3pm and I was the only thing standing between the Board and their weekend.
