After a brush with reality, Amy Schoolfield decided to settle these issues long before she was ever faced with them. Women think in terms of collaboration, creating partnerships and sharing ideas whereas men have more difficulty doing this. Women typically do not respond to peer pressure in their giving as readily as men. A better way to engage a woman is by asking her to join with others in making a difference.

Many men think in terms of statistics while women want to hear stories.

Running a foundation is a difficult task for anyone, especially when you are learning as you go.
