It’s been argued (on SOFII) that St Paul was the first ‘career fundraiser’. But was he also the first philanthropic psychologist? Read about him on our timeline of fundraising history for classical times, follow the further reading links, and decide for yourself. bit.ly/FR-history-1...

"But it illustrates what can happen when 'amateur' leadership is left untrammelled by professional ethics and competence." Reliably blunt sense from @ianmacquillin.bsky.social.

The furore around the Captain Tom Foundation is unlikely to result in a loss of trust in charities generally, say our director @ianmacquillin.bsky.social. But it illustrates what can happen when 'amateur' leadership is left untrammelled by professional ethics and competence.

Hello everyone. Rogare is now on Bluesky, where many of our favourite charity people now are (with more on the way). We rarely post on Twitter any more, but looking forward to engaging in constructive discussions here.
