Review
"Reinventing Fundraising is new, exciting, and fun to read. These two remarkable authors discuss and convey a great amount of information about a phenomenal part of American history––women′s philanthropy and their volunteer spirit. This book is a must for volunteers, trustees, trust officers, attorneys, financial planners, and all professional fundraisers." (Brad Holmes, vice president for philanthropy, St. Luke′s Medical Center, Milwaukee, Wisconsin)
``As one of the `new Older Women′ so succinctly described in Reinventing Fundraising, I was intrigued with their realistic and positive assessment of my generation and our philanthropy quotient. These skilled fundraising professionals give us not only a textbook for their own colleagues, but also a gospel for us volunteer donors who aspire to maximize women′s philanthropy and joy of giving. (Elizabeth S. Upjohn)
Product Description
Practical and incisive, Reinventing Fundraising rejects the notion that women make unenlightened philanthropists. Shaw and Taylor draw from interviews, focus groups, and discussion with more than 150 women philanthropists and scores of development professionals to identify model programs that focus on women′s giving. Besides showing the rich history of American women′s philanthropy, the authors outline new program models that organizations can tailor to their own female constituents.
