Twitter Top List of Non-Profit Do Gooders
We recently scoured Twitter to compile our top list of non-profit do gooders. Similar to our previously created list of CSR leaders, we found many strong Tweeters with exceptional nonprofit knowledge, but we know there are more out there. Who are we missing? Do let us know and we’ll definitely make every effort to add them.
