For years nonprofits have been increasing applying alternative approaches in donor development and public awareness. Now there is a whole generation of young entrepreneurs that see a nonnegotiable connection between being personally successful and being relevant in social issues, especially issues that are related to their industry or audience.

It’s important to continue highlighting the pioneers in this new way of taking care of business..and each other. Great article.
