Publisher's Synopsis
How do people become great fundraisers and leaders in general? This book tells professional fundraisers of all skill levels, executive directors, and board members how to maximize giving from all sorts of people. Using true stories as his method, Alex Comfort, CFRE, illustrates everything a person must do to help a beloved non-profit agency. The stories do the teaching, not a heavy-droning professor. Employing humor and the everyday joys and trials of approaching people, Comfort's book is a quick read which makes an immediate impact. Expect to laugh a lot and even shed a tear or two with the real-life people who show that anyone who loves a charity can secure the resources it needs to help an organization become better at its mission.
