Summary

Getting tax-exempt status for your nonprofit organization is just the first step -- whether its mission will succeed depends entirely on your ability to raise money. Fortunately, Effective Fundraising for Nonprofits will show you how.

Featuring advice and stories from over 40 experienced fundraisers, foundation staffers, journalists and more, the 2nd edition of Effective Fundraising for Nonprofits explains how to:

  • work with individual donors
  • plan special events
  • solicit grants from foundations and corporations
  • get media coverage
  • use the Web to further fundraising goals
  • start a side business to raise funds
  • and much more

The 2nd edition also covers IRS rules and regulations, grassroots strategies for struggling nonprofits, the tools and staffing needed, and dozens of resources that you can take advantage of.

Best of all, Effective Fundraising for Nonprofits is written in plain English, cutting out the jargon and "consultant speak" that's all too common in many nonprofit books.

Press Reviews

"Provides clear answers for nonprofits, with advice from fundraisers, foundation staffers and journalists."
San Diego Union-Tribune
"If you have room for only one book on your fundraising bookshelf, Effective Fundraising for Nonprofits should be that book. Author Ilona Bray... does a remarkable job giving key information about every aspect of fundraising without being too simplistic."
Advancing Philanthropy

Customer Reviews

"I've already changed the way I write a query letter based on reading this book. Beyond that, it's engaging and readable and absolutely does have 'real-world strategies that work.'"

"It looks excellent, but I have to say that I haven't been able to look at it much because my wife... has taken it and is reading everything."
