Articles on social change from the latest edition of SSIR
Winter 2004
Volume 2, Number 3
For foundations, the decision not to fund can be just as important as the decision to fund. When a small group of foundations collectively decided not to put any more money into the Pittsburgh school system they saw as too flawed to effectively aid, they catalyzed the formation of a cross-sector commission on public education. The winter 2004 issue of Stanford Social Innovation Review features the article “Leading Boldly,” which reveals the powerful effects foundation leadership willing to take risks can have.
