About the Author: Jacob Harold
Jacob Haroldis a social change strategist, author, and executive. His story parallels the intellectual arc ofThe Toolbox: he’s traveled from farm to monastery to J*il to laboratory to boardroom, all in search of the best ways to do good.
From 2012 to 2021, Harold served as President & CEO of GuideStar and co-founder of Candid. Fast Company called Candid “the definitive nonprofit transparency organization.” Each year, more than 20 million people use its data on nonprofits, grants, and social sector practice.
Candid was formed in 2019 by the merger of GuideStar and Foundation Center. Harold co-led the $45 million capital campaign to launch Candid, wrote Candid’s guiding strategy document, Candid 2030, and served as EVP during post-merger integration.
During his tenure leading GuideStar, Harold oversaw a financial turnaround, a tripling of GuideStar’s reach, and major partnerships with organizations ranging from Google to the Gates Foundation. In 2013, Harold launched the Overhead Myth campaign to shift attention from nonprofits’ financial ratios to their programmatic results. Since then, GuideStar’s Profile Program has been used by more than 200,000 nonprofits to tell their full story to the world.
