Enter Our Competition!

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

Win a pre-publication copy of Philanthrocapitalism in paperback! The first copies of the paperback have arrived hot off the presses at our offices. The book looks great – with an attractive new cover (as featured on our redesigned website), a new subtitle (How Giving Can Save the World), and lots of new material, including a foreword by Bill Clinton, a new preface explaining why philanthrocapitalism matters even more after the economic crisis, and a new chapter on “mass philanthrocapitalism” that explains why organisations like GlobalGiving, DonorsChoose, Facebook Causes and Kiva.org are potential game changers in the business of giving.

We want to give away one of our copies before publication next month, and have decided to hold a competition. Go to our new Facebook fansite, join up and simply answer this question in one sentence (or so): will the Gates Foundation or Kiva.org have a greater impact on poverty and why? Post your answer as a comment and we’ll choose a winner on Sunday. Good luck!
