Unfunded List has an office! We are members of a coworking space focused on open government, accountability and transparency called OpenGov Hub in Washington, DC. We have just completed our first full year in the Hub and it's been great. Our favorite moment so far has undoubtedly been the opportunity to sit down with Nada Zohdy for a special episode of Open Door Philanthropy. Nada Zohdy joined the OpenGov Hub in September 2015. As Director she oversees all strategy, operations, and programs for this growing social enterprise, and leads the design and implementation of programs to promote collaboration, innovation and learning across the Hub network of 40 member organizations. In 2015 she received a Master of Public Policy from the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, where she was a Pforzheimer Nonprofit Fellow and focused on linking democracy/governance with social entrepreneurship/innovation. Nada was a consultant for the OECD through her applied Master's thesis, which analyzed the opinions of 100 local civil society groups about open government reforms in Tunisia. She also performed research on nonprofit collaborations, published by the Stanford Social Innovation Review.
Unfunded List founder Dave Moss interviews his father, a U.S. Cultural Historian, about the history of Philanthropy in America. Richard J. Moss (aka Pete Moss), was the John and Cornelia Gibson Professor of History at Colby College, where he taught U.S. History and American Studies for close to three decades. A cultural historian, he is the author of two biographies of the post-revolutionary figures Noah Webster and Jedidiah Morse. Later in his career, he became interested in the history of sport and leisure and authored two books on golf and country clubs. He also wrote Eden in the Pines, a history of Pinehurst, North Carolina, his current home. He earned his doctorate at Michigan State University in 1974. At Colby, his courses on American culture — particularly in the late 19th century — dealt substantially with philanthropy as an important aspect of American life.

David Searby is the founding grandpa of Komodia - a new nonprofit dedicated to finding comity through comedy. We worked with him to help get his organization up off the ground.

Starting a new social venture is hard and once we got everything up off the ground we had David by the booth to chat about the process over a nice bottle of Malbec.

Alexander Berger has the shortest bio Dave has ever read in the booth. But the brevity of his bio shouldn’t mislead you – he’s accomplished a lot. An effective altruist, he runs U.S. programs at GiveWell and is a leader within the Open Philanthropy Project. A philosophy major at Berkeley, he is now a philosopher-philanthropist spending his time thinking about how folks can have the most impact with their dollars. Like the Unfunded List, Alex’s organization has their own list of organizations that make the best use of philanthropic dollars. Alexander sat down in the booth and spoke at length with Dave about philanthropy, the arts, the recent rise of criticism in philanthropy and they finished an entire bottle of Pinot.
Joining Dave in the booth after a long hiatus is Dipanwita Das. Dipanwita is no stranger to being in a tiny room like the booth with Dave as they spent over a year as officemates at Atlas Corps and later worked together again on the “It’s On Us” campaign. Dipanwita’s firm, Das Strategies, was instrumental in the initial development of the Unfunded List website and she has worked with funders and fund seekers all over the world. For her episode she chose Sancerre which we’re pretty sure is the snootiest selection yet.
Michael Robbins is the founder of Span Learning and previously led education partnerships for the White House and Department of Education. He started his career on the developing team for the original AmeriCorps program. He has a lifelong passion for connecting technology and innovation that began when he developed a Dungeons & Dragons software program as a child. Today, he has a much smarter and better looking son who also loves technology and D&D. Michael spent some time as Dave’s boss at The SEED Foundation. He stopped by the booth and together, over a nice red, they discussed partnerships, the time commitment behind fundseeking, value propositions and a host of other topics related to the unfunded.

Anne Carlson is a two-time cancer survivor, experienced fundraiser and event planner and executive director of the Colon Cancer Coalition. She stopped by the booth to enjoy a delicious Sauvignon Blanc with Dave. They compare butts, talk grants and also talk about the fact that Colon Cancer Coaliton’s application to the Unfunded List was rejected. Several of our evaluators wanted to know, Why so many cancer organizations? Anne gives you the answer and shares her expertise as a fundraiser and nonprofit executive director.
Anastasia Dellaccio is not only the Gelato Queen of DC, she is also a champion for social good and a fixture on the DC social scene. Most importantly though, she is friends with Dave Moss, our host and recently found time in her busy schedule to sit down with Dave for a fruity Spanish Tempranillo and, of course, she brought along some strawberry gelato to pair. While she was at the UN Foundation, Anastasia helped put together the campaign for #GivingTuesday, an annual giving event which happens to be the same day the inaugural Unfunded List will be announced. Listen in as Anastasia and Dave discuss the #GlobalGoals, gelato, the Millennial Action Project and her cool job at Sister Cities International.
