In 
his latest newsletter consultant Rick Christ covers the reported closures or end
of service from sites such as Charitableway, Donornet and AllAdvantage. He writes:“
This is a great time for nonprofits to say, “See?? I TOLD you so! I KNEW these firms
were all gonna go belly-up, and leave us with egg on our faces! It’s a good thing
WE didn’t sign one of those contracts!””

But he adds: “And what a mistake that would be. It is necessary to understand that
we live in fluid times. Certainly a United Way knows that its biggest employer may
announce this afternoon a major plant closing… Does that mean the United Way idea
is a failure?”
