Cause Strategy Partners

It has been a whirlwind of activity and excitement since Advantage Media | Forbes Books, and Cause Strategy Partners announced the release of my new book, #BecomingACause, just 24 hours ago. Remarkably, the book became an immediate Amazon #1 Best Seller in their #philanthropy and #charity category, providing us with this seal to affix to all future copies. Apparently (at least for a while) we surpassed sales of the amazing Chef Josè Andrès’ The World Central Kitchen Cookbook which had been topping the list for some time. Mind-blowing! Thanks to all of you who purchased your pre-order copy on day one. Your support, interest, and loyalty means more than I can tell you. To learn more about the book, visit www.robacton.com. With so much appreciation!

We are pleased to release our Ares Philanthropy 2023 Annual Report. This interactive publication highlights our grantmaking, employee engagement and donations over the past year.

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve joined the advisory board of Cause Strategy Partners. It will be my privilege to help this important organization on its path to continued growth and influence. Connecting people with their passions may be an oversimplistic description but it aptly describes the influence my Callen-Lorde Community Health Center board service has had on my life. Thank you, Rob Acton and entire CSP team for welcoming me as a Causie!
