157 Qualities of a Networked Nonprofit by Beth Kanter and Allison Fine1). Transparent
Kanter and Fine use a sponge (the fry-cook ocean kind, not the kitchen) to illustrate transparency:
A sponge clings to rock no matter how many times its battered by waves. Your organization is firmly grounded in its cultural identity, organizational goals and mission.
A sponges filter out nutrients as waves pass through it. Your organization grows by making it easy foroutsiders to get in and insiders to get out.

22Why Did I Start WTF?My mom has Stage IV, inoperable lung cancer. She has NEVER smoked.
Lung cancer is the #1 cancer killer and the LEAST funded.
Smoking stigma stands in the way of lung cancer research funding.
Fact is, 60% of all new lung cancer cases are diagnosed in people who have NEVER smoked or former smokers who quit decades ago.
Bottom line: ANYONE can get lung cancer. ANYONE!
