Change the WebSubmitted by Graham on Wed Jan 21, 2009 A few months ago I went to a presentation by Peter Deitz that was hosted by the local NetSquared group in DC.

Over 50 people from the sector dropped by La Trouvaille in SOHO to hear presentations by e-campaigning experts at Peta, the NSPCC, Age Concern, and the National Autistic Society. Many thanks to Allan, Sarah, Lisa, and Esmee for their time and effort! America Votes 2008Submitted by Graham on Fri Oct 17, 2008 It's been a very, very busy start to the autumn. With the Canadian election just over, there is still more than 2 weeks to run in the US contest.

A lot of groups used the technology, and overall we generated more than 150,000 emails to candidates standing for election to the Canadian House of Commons. advocacy in an economic downturnSubmitted by Graham on Fri Oct 17, 2008 Third Sector magazine published an article this week about a speech from philanthropist and investment banker John Studzinski.
