"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

To many people who have read them, the opening and closing lines of Norman Maclean’s "A River Runs Through It" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_River_Runs_Through_It_%28film%29 are among the most beautiful words ever strung together.

Robert Redford knew it, and as he turned the novella into cinema back in 1991, there was no question the director would open, and close, with the voice of a narrator repeating Maclean’s words.

"In our family, there was no clear line between religion and fly fishing," the narrator would begin.
