I just discovered that Eric Savage & Kylie Charlton run a great blog at Social Edge. Capital Ideas is described as a “Finance 101 for Social Entrepreneurs” and is a wonderful resource throughout the fundraising process.
There are entries on financing alternatives, pitching, business plans and more. I have not yet had the time to read through all the material on the blog, but what I have had the chance to look at is interesting and extensive without being too technical. The blog is running for another few months, so check it out!

Thanks for discovering and sharing Capital Ideas. My favorites are the entries on DON’T show me the money? http://tinyurl.com/c2qkzm and What goes on inside the mind of financiers as they listen to a social entrepreneur pitch for funding? http://www.socialedge.org/blogs/capital-ideas
