Red Beans & Rice
Red Beans & Rice is a weekly e-mail of interesting articles, funding resources, professional development opportunities and other areas that Cuidiu has come across the previous week related to the nonprofit and philanthropic sector.  Each day we receive hundreds of e-mails, RSS feeds and blog postings and this is our attempt to synthesize all of this into the most useful information for you. We look forward to sharing this information with those who we know closely and those whom we have shared only a relationship through e-mail. 

Please let us know what information you find most useful and please forward this information to your colleagues, board members and friends.  The reason for the name Red Beans & Rice originates from Louie Armstrong and how he signed his letters.  According to some he meant it as a kind gesture to grow stronger.

A Tough Hybrid to Swallow

Its all about options these days.  Have you heard of the L3C?  Its a cross between an LLC and a Nonprofit.  The Americans for Community Development explain it as "a new form of limited liability company which combines the best features of a for-profit LLC with the socially beneficial aspects of a nonprofit. It is the for-profit with a nonprofit soul."  But some believe its just another way to make the nonprofit bottom line all about making a profit instead of focusing on the nonprofit's intrinsic value.  Check out the Americans' for Community Development site and read the Nonprofit University blog's take and decide for yourself.
