Online Discussion Tomorrow: How Charities Can Go Green

Join us tomorrow at 12 noon, U.S. Eastern time, for an online discussion about the environmentally friendly steps charities can take to both save money and save the planet.

Our guests will be:

• Cynthia L. Bailie, director of the Foundation Center’s Cleveland office and of the organization’s special online initiatives.

• Sarah S. Brophy, a consultant who helps museums, historic houses, and other cultural institutions in New England and the Mid-Atlantic become environmentally and financially sustainable. She is co-author of The Green Museum: A Primer on Environmental Practice.

• Kimberly Austin, a program associate at the Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta. As part of her role, Ms. Austin is involved in Grants to Green, a new program that provides environmentally focused knowledge and financing to nonprofit groups in metropolitan Atlanta.

1. San Francisco Department of the Environment is doing a lot of work in this area and I encourage a visit to the website (www.sfenvironment.org) The green business section as a good guide. I have also created a very concise greening grid for use by non-profits. Anyone interested in that may contact me to get a copy.
