Successful Corporate Fund Raising Effective Strategies for Todays Nonprofits Review


 Since I am new to fund raising I have been looking for a book that provides practical, hands-on advice on how to raise funds from the corporate sector. This book takes that approach and in a very positive way. It assumes that corporate giving is here to stay and takes the position that there are already enough books available that explore the theoretical reasons why corporations give. I particularly liked the fact that the author sprinkles the text with examples of on-line fund raising and using the Internet. There are good examples of how to submit on-line grant applications and ways to increase your success rate using this new technology. The author also advocates using email when contacting, cultivating and soliciting corporate donors, something that I feel comforatble doing. All in all a job well done!
