Dennis McMillian, President of The Foraker Group, worked in the United Way system for twenty-one years in Alabama, South Carolina and Louisiana before moving to Alaska in 1992 to run the United Way of Anchorage. During his tenure at United Way he trained hundreds of United Way professionals and volunteers, spoke at numerous national conferences and consulted for over forty United Ways across America. He has also worked with numerous United Ways in Canada, throughout Asia and in Russia. The United Way of Anchorage first envisioned The Foraker Group, and prior to Foraker Group, provided nonprofit training throughout Alaska; Dennis did many of these trainings. Since Foraker Group was formed in 2000, Dennis has now worked with over 500 Alaskan nonprofits building their capacity and has trained thousands of Alaskans serving on boards. He has a B.S. Degree from New College from the University of Alabama and an M.S. in Education Management from UAB. He is married with two grown children. When he's not flying around Alaska helping to strengthen nonprofits, he likes to read, run and travel around Alaska to hike and sightsee.

The following are letters written by Dennis focusing on nonprofit issues and goals.

•  Are You Really Going To Do It? 
I was very grateful and honored to receive one of the coveted Rasmuson Foundation sabbaticals that would afford me the opportunity to take off three months.

•  Points to Consider When Founding a Nonprofit Organization 
Regardless of the data that suggests that Alaska already has more nonprofits per capita than any other state, The Foraker Group continues to receive calls daily from individuals throughout the state wanting to form a new organization.
