Mark Your Calendars for an Important Event

Parent Night with John Bloom
Thursday, September 21st, 7-8:30PM
Location: The Relationship Center, 109 S Main Street, Wauconda

We have an exciting evening planned for Sept. 21st, and we need you there!

John Bloom, Chief Executive of RSF Social Finance based in San Francisco will be joining us to engage our community in a prescient conversation about the intrinsic connection between community and money. This rare opportunity comes to us via grant funds from the Mid-States Shared Gifting group. We look forward to seeing you there.

Please note: This is an adult educational experience and is not a fundraiser.


John guides the organizational culture at RSF. The purpose of organizational culture is to tend to the reflective capacities of RSF, including how we articulate and practice our values in internal relationships and with our clients, how we learn as an organization, and how we manifest those values and practices through our public voice. John has worked with over 100 non-profits over the last several years in the areas of capacity building and culture change. He has led many workshops, lectured, and written about aspects of money and governance for non-profits. John has founded two non-profits, served as a trustee on several (including Yggdrasil Land Foundation), and worked as the administrator at an independent school before joining RSF. He has written extensively on many aspects of charitable organizations, associative economics, life as an active member of a 29 year old biodynamic CSA, and on the topics of money and philanthropy, including The Genius of Money—Essays and Interviews Reimagining the Financial World. He lives in San Francisco.
