'Big Fish to Fry' Quest for Major Donors.

Abstract

I met him in the lobby of a large hotel in the Midwest as we were waiting for the doors to open to a panel discussion of health care experts. I noticed his name tag and recognized his Catholic health care system immediately. We had a common network. I introduced myself and discovered he was the system’s chief financial officer. We were having a pleasant chat when I asked him about his system's foundation.
