I applaud the founders and investors for starting the Philadelphia Social Innovations Journal and creating a new social innovations movement in our region. The hardest job of a foundation executive is saying no to good ideas and programs and staying true to one's mission. The Journal is therefore a wonderful new venture that will help foundations leaders like me and others get exposed to great leaders and organizations, who are not on our radar because we may not we have funded them, but whose innovations and lessons, nevertheless, are important to our region and beyond.”
