Take the Poll on Foundation Investments

So the Gates Foundation announcement(s) about investment policies have sparked a very good debate about whether or not foundations should use their endowed assets as part of pursuing their social mission. No new topic this - Jed Emerson and others have spent years devising and explaining the many options foundations have for using their endowments to further their missions. So - tell us what you think - take the poll at Philanthropy 2173

Poll will be open until January 31st. Please vote, email others to vote, pass on the URL, send it to the LA Times, send it to the Gates Foundation - lets get some discussion going!
