Engaged Boards Will Fundraise! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781733087568)

Fundraising is the hardest work you ask your board members to do. If they're not fully committed and engaged and they don't feel they have a strong stake in your organization, they aren't going to fundraise for it. In this groundbreaking book, Michael Davidson and Brian Saber bring their collective expertise and their 20 years of working together on governance and fundraising issues to help you understand how good governance is a means to inspire your board to fundraise.

Most board members are not actively engaged in fundraising and don't have the proper level of responsibility for it. This holds nonprofits back in critical ways. In Engaged Boards Will Fundraise! we will provide you with an understanding of the relationship between overall board governance and fundraising; strategies that are most likely to motivate and engage your board in fundraising; and practices that can support board fundraising.
