Media comments about CharityVillage
"Arizona State University's Nonprofit Management Institute announced today [March 6, 2000] that it is ranking CharityVillage.Com as the nonprofit sector's best website for its comprehensive listing of email discussion listservs that focus on issues affecting the nonprofit sector. While there are a number of websites that maintain listerv information on the nonprofit sector there is none as comprehensive as this."
