Homogenization: Good for Milk, Bad for Nonprofits

by Tom Durso on October 15th, 2007

The Chronicle of Philanthropy will host an online chat on October 26 to address an interesting issue:

While many nonprofit leaders say diversity is important, members of minority groups remain scarce on the boards and staffs of the nation’s charitable organizations. And this state of affairs can prevent some charities and grant makers from attaining full success in carrying out their missions.

It’s sad but probably not surprising that nonprofits, which tend to have a more progressive outlook than their for-profit siblings, nevertheless lag in diversity. Erasing centuries of discrimination is no mean feat, and while well-meaning people at schools, charities, foundations, and the like truly are trying, more must be done. Should be an interesting discussion. | 501(c)
