Bold, bright, and seriously philanthropic

Who
we are

XOXO, Philanthropy is a writer-led fundraising blog for people who love philanthropy — and for those who want to finally understand how it works.

Here, I lift the curtain on what’s really happening behind the ask, make giving feel less intimidating for donors of all sizes, and dish the truth to nonprofit pros about what works, what doesn’t, and how to do this work without losing your sanity.

Real stories, honest advice, and a healthy dose of GG nostalgia.

XOXO, Philanthropy

You know you love funding.
