When the Virginia G. Piper Charitable Trust, one of Arizona’s largest foundations, heard the ideas of iconoclast thinker Dan Pallotta at a 2011 conference luncheon, it sparked a revolution. Pallotta’s argument was simple but explosive: Nonprofits, shackled by an irrational obsession with low overhead, are chronically underinvesting in their own capacity to do good.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eInspired, Piper Trust made an extraordinary wager on the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in Phoenix—a beloved but financially fragile organization serving the city’s poor and homeless. What followed was a high-stakes experiment in what Pallotta calls “multiplication philanthropy”: the idea that rational investment in growth can multiply a charity’s impact beyond anything piecemeal giving can achieve.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWithin a few years, SVdP Phoenix became one of the largest St. Vincent de Paul councils in the world, feeding, clothing, housing, and healing tens of thousands who had nowhere else to turn.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Big Bet\u003c\/i\u003e is a gripping narrative of faith, risk, and transformation—and an urgent call for donors, foundations, and nonprofit leaders to rethink everything they thought they knew about how charity works.","brand":"Post Hill Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48797921739007,"sku":"9798895658789","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9798895658789","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
