Today, I am honored to be a guest blogger for The Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation, a private foundation based in Morristown, NJ that tweets at @GRDodge and powers one of the best foundation blogs in the sector. Please read the post, “Listening, Leveraging, and Learning: The work of the Community Foundation of South Jersey“ and spend a few minutes diving into the rich content on their blog, which features voices from several members of their staff as well as visiting bloggers from time to time.

"Why Uplift?"

This blog covers the issues of our world community and the people whose innovative ideas will bring about sustainable solutions for the good of all. The word “Uplift” is used as a metaphor for “sustainable” social change. Uplift was borrowed from the ideology of “racial uplift” espoused by twentieth century civil rights leaders that sought new approaches to social change in their pursuit of racial equality. Similarly, today's innovators seek new approaches to social change that will uplift the human race.
