Communications

WG members interested in joining Washington Grantmakers' informal Communications e-group should email Christian Clansky, WG's director of communications. (To learn how your organization can become a WG member, click here.)

Traditionally, foundations and nonprofits have been less than effective at communicating their goals, successes, and failures—but things are changing. Whether you are a communications professional, or communications is one of many hats you wear, these five sites can help you be a leader in the field:

free-range thinking™ newsletter - monthly journal for foundations and nonprofits
The Communications Network - Explore their “Jargon Finder” (click on the letters, not the words)... and adjust your habits accordingly.
Seth Godin’s blog - Seth is a change-agent-at-large who preaches "permission marketing" – Read it for training in out-of-the-box thinking.
Douglas Gould & Co. - Strategic communications resources
