(Community Matters) What a terrific day. Spent most of it 
in National’s Stadium, the PNC Diamond Room the setting for our Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) meetings. The topic was capacity building and how best to launch the Social Innovation Fund, Volunteer Generation Fund and Nonprofit Capacity Building grant monies recently authorized by Congress. Lots of discussion about intellectual capital, leverage, capacities and capabilities. I enjoyed the day in conversation.
Tonight I’m staying with my dear dear friends, Sonya, Dio, Gabel and Reid Cramer. Wonderful dinner in with conversations about everything from national finance reform to unstructured elementary school sports, the building of bridges and the importance of cooks as well as artists.
