New Philanthropy Article in Details Magazine

Details Magazine recently had a story on the young and venturous in philanthropy. The article doesn't really go in depth into venture philanthropy but spends most of its energy on creating a divide between old philanthropy of society parties and giving money without demanding results against venture philanthropy and social entreprenuers, many of whom come from the new wealthy class (much from technology). It's very Details: get some young people to talk about their grand ambitions, ambitions that depart from the old way of doing things. But Matt Klein form Blue Ridge Foundation told me that the idea of being focused and accountability - though sold as brought on by venture philanthropists - were always there.
