{UniversalGiving is an online giving and action platform that has a novel model of using corporate advisory sources to subsidize payment processing so that they can operate sustainably without taking a cut of online donations. }

In her recent blog entry, Pamela gives tips to the entrepreneurs as follows ,

'Accountants. We need very sound accountants. We can’t overlook some of the ‘mundane’ but important in managment, especially if you are a hybrid.

Intern/Volunteer Team. We need a strong intern and/or volunteer team. Interns can bring in amazing ideas and execution. They can also bring in such a positive influence in your culture!

Your Informal Board of Advisors. We all need outside, “not formal” advisors. Make sure you have your “informal” Board of Advisors that guides you, listens to you, helps you. This is really important on ethics and keeping yourself true to yourself, and consistently in line with integrity.
