Yesterday's New York Times Sunday Magazine ran a great story on charity:water
and its' founder Scott Harrison. It is worth reading on many levels as
Scott, who was an accomplished club promoter in NYC saw a need (clean
water in Africa), felt a burden to solve the problem, and identified a
gap in the market to meet the challenge (give people a way to see proof
of their contributions). Along with ensuring his funding through a very
business like way of approaching the market, he has grown charity:water, as a non-profit to nearly $100MM in revenue and impact.
It's a fantastic story and we can all take lessons from Scott and his
approach. A non-profit that we can learn from in our for-profit
businesses, that in itself is novel.
