A true collaboration of thought and ideas, 'Excellence in Fundraising in Canada' is designed to help practitioners learn about best practice and put the ideas into action. It contributes a uniquely Canadian perspective to the body of fundraising knowledge that exists, and includes contributions from 22 Canadian fundraising professionals, all leaders in their field - each providing a contribution with a Canadian point of view, and a Canadian perspective. Each chapter addresses and contributes to an aspect of a total development program, and the reader can pick and choose from specific chapters they wish to access, each cross-referenced to other chapters. 'Excellence' will make an ideal textbook for college, university, and community courses on fundraising and resource development, and will serve as a valuable resource for both new professionals and those in mid-career who may have a strength in one area of development, but not another. In 'Excellence' the authors have brought the Canadian perspective to the professional practice of fundraising.

"Working from research conducted over six years with hundreds of charities and donors, 'Donor-Centered Fundraising' paints a candid picture of why donors stop giving to charities they once supported, and what it will take to preserve their loyalty in the future. In clear language and backed by statistical evidence, Penelope Burk explores the pitfalls of our traditional approaches to donor communication and recognition and articulates what donors want but seldom get from the charities they support. The book features straightforward and accessible calculations that show how much money charities are failing to raise, and offers a step-by-step procedure for testing a donor-centered alternative and gaining its acceptance in any organization."--From publisher description.
