About Us

PhilanthropyNYU is a publication of the George H. Heyman Jr. Center at New York University. We are dedicated to providing a forum to discuss the myriad issues which fall under the broad rubric of philanthropy. These topics include, but are not limited to fundraising, grantmaking, social entrepreneurship, nonprofit management, social justice issues, technology, ethics, law, programmatic strategies, etc.

This e-journal is a product of the students, faculty and staff of the Heyman Center. We invite your comments and submissions and are always looking for quality content which will provide insight and guidance to the nonprofit community.

The editorial staff includes myself, Brad McKenna, Linda Felstein, Adrienne Prassas, and Bess White. Our faculty advisor is Ruthellen Rubin, without whom this project could not happen.

We are very lucky to work with the design firm of Princeton Online, and appreciate all the work that Peter Gibson and Dave Koehler and their staff have done to make this a quality website.

Thanks also to Lauren Weston, Casey Rotter, and Rita Long for their work in piloting this project; without their contributions, PhilanthopyNYU would not be a reality.

Finally, very special thanks to Mrs. Naomi Levine for making this project a reality.
