Population aging presents an opportunity for inclusive growth in the non-profit sector. Armine Yalnizyan convincingly announces a call to action for the sector. Also - assuring to learn that fears of robots eating our jobs are overblown. #BackOffHungryRobots #NonprofitDriven19

Interesting stat from Donna Murray Brown of the Michigan Nonprofit Association: 74% of jobs in Michigan’s non-profit sector are held by women despite the persistence of pay inequity. Wow. Change is essential! #NonprofitDriven19

Although registered charities may conduct limited aspects of social enterprise, what is permitted is very restrictive and falls short of the broad “social enterprise” activities that are being conducted across the global landscape. #NonprofitDriven19

In June 2019, Canada launched $50M Program to fund “social purpose organizations” acquire skills to operate social enterprises. Exciting times, but charities and NPOs should be mindful of the legal restrictions before undertaking social enterprise operating. #NonprofitDriven19

Fascinating discussion this morning at #CAGP19 with a panel of experienced advisors moderated by @EstatesLaw. Donor advised funds vs private foundations? It depends on preferences and objectives of the client. Thank you @malburrs @charityjune30 and Lydia Potocnik!

Deadline day for transition for BC societies! If a society hasn’t transitioned by today it will be non-compliant (never a good thing) and a process will begin to dissolve the society (essentially corporate death if I may be so bold). It’s important #gettoit
