Maribel Morey thinks about learning from philanthropy’s past

“Philanthropies and nonprofits are, by definition, there to serve the public good. And if we’re there to serve the public and do good on behalf of the public, then I want to be disruptive in the sense of calling ourselves out as scholars, as practitioners on what is the best way to do good. And it shouldn’t always feel comfortable.”
