TH - Local News Article: "A Web site could forge new links between prospective donors and local nonprofit organizations in 2009.
DubuqueGiving.org is a facet of the GoldPenny Project, a partnership between Dubuque365.com, the Community Foundation of Greater Dubuque and the Better Business Bureau of Greater Iowa. The project initially grew out of a dinner conversation about combatting 'donor fatigue' and Brad Parks' idea that 'every penny to a nonprofit (organization) is gold.'"

Wild Apricot Blog : Online collaboration tools for non-profit board members
From Wild Apricot Technology Blog
Wild Apricot Blog : Online collaboration tools for non-profit board members: "Online collaboration tools for non-profit board members

An unlucky soul who has volunteered to put everything together would spend hours comparing pages and sentences between different versions. As you can imagine, this whole process could take up months!"
