Dan Pallotta is the architect behind some of the biggest non-profit events like the Breast Cancer 3-Day walks and AIDS Rides, which have collectively raised vast sums for various non-profits. But Dan thinks conventional wisdom surrounding non-profits is all wrong: in his view, traditional metrics like low overhead and minimal staff costs hinder non-profits and prevent them from attracting top talent, investing in advertising, and innovating in fundraising.
