New Strategies for Educational Fund Raising by Michael J. Worth Pdf

In this sequel to the highly respected and practical 1993 book on fund raising, Worth and his group of authoritative contributors cover areas that did not even exist in this field in 1993, including the concepts of "principal gifts" and "benchmarking." They adapt strategies from Worth's earlier book and introduce many new ones to meet current challenges and take advantage of new opportunities. Comprising 31 chapters divided into ten logical parts, the authors provide a complete picture of this field, which is so important to leaders in higher education. Beginning with a strong base of knowledge, the authors then discuss topics ranging from raising funds from individuals; creating the campaign (accounting, long-range planning, leadership, the mission, kickoff); corporate and foundation support; traditions of giving; managing and supporting development programs; ethical concerns; and trends for the future. Michael Worth gives a great deal of attention to the environment in which those responsible for advancement in higher education have to work today. The book addresses new areas in the field that didn't exist when Worth wrote his first edition of this book in 1993. For example, the use of financial instruments in the planning of gift giving are more sophisticated, and business techniques have been tapped to improve management of programs and measurement of success. Part II of the book describes the underlying foundations of educational fund raising in three chapters, each written by an expert contributor. This section of the book describes the base of knowledge in the field (theory and research) and discusses the institutional plan and its relationship to the goals and objectives of the institution. Part V, covers corporate and foundation support, which is based on reasoned strategies and business plans and goals rather than on altruism and emotion, which can often be the foundation for individual giving. The book also includes a glossary and a selective bibliography.

Educational Fund Raising by Michael J. Worth Pdf

This book is more than the war stories and anecdotes of seasoned practitioners, but it is far from a statement of some general theory of educational fundraising. Some chapters are basic introductions to the topic, suitable as orientation for the beginner, while others assume a more sophisticated understanding of both development and higher education. By analyzing all aspects of fundraising through formal, research-based approaches, Educational Fundraising is an excellent handbook outlining the complex discipline of fundraising which provides something for almost any reader.

The Kindness of Strangers by Deni Elliott Pdf

In The Kindness of Strangers, Deni Elliott examines ethically questionable situations that have arisen in response to institutional dependency on external benefactors. Major concerns analyzed include: the increased professionalism of fundraising and of donating; an increased willingness of institutions to cater to the demands of donors; creation of dual roles for faculty, students, and staff when they are fundraisers and donors in addition to playing their primary roles in higher education; business-university research partnerships that put business values in conflict with academic values; the commercialization of student athletics; and endowment use and investment.

Successful Fundraising for the Academic Library by Kathryn Dilworth,Laura Sloop Henzl Pdf

Successful Fundraising for the Academic Library: Philanthropy in Higher Education covers fundraising, a task that is often grouped into a combination role that may include, for example, the university museum or performance venue, thus diluting the opportunity for successful fundraising. Because the traditional model for higher education fundraising entails the cultivation of alumni from specific departments and colleges, the library is traditionally left out, often becoming a low-performing development area with smaller appropriations for fundraising positions. Most higher education development professionals consider the library fundraising position a stepping stone into another position with higher pay and more potential for professional advancement down the road rather than as a focus for their career. However, for universities that invest in development professionals who know how to leverage the mission of libraries to the larger alumni and friend community, the results include innovative and successful approaches to messaging that resonates with donors. This book provides information that applies to all fundraising professionals and academic leaders looking to strengthen their programs with philanthropic support, even those beyond university libraries. Makes the case for university libraries as a viable avenue for donor engagement that translates to all academic areas of higher education fundraising Highlights the importance of collaborative relationships and fundraising strategies with academic leaders, donors, and fundraising staff Outlines strategies that have resulted in fundraising success for academic and research libraries at universities of varying size and culture

Fund-Raising Activities in Toronto Elementary and Secondary Schools. Research Service [Report] #172 by Maisy Cheng,Sylvia Larter,Toronto Board of Education (Ontario). Research Dept,Greg McClare Pdf

This report describes and analyzes fund-raising activities in Toronto elementary and secondary schools. Data were provided by 87 percent of the 158 Toronto school principals. The topics covered include: (1) kinds of activities, (2) frequency of activities, (3) extent of activities (grade level and type of school), (4) purposes (for school needs or other charitable agencies), (5) roles of parents, (6) prizes, (7) cautions given to students, and (8) the educational value of the activities. Comparative tables are provided for each topic area. The report concludes that the rationale of school fund-raising activities is the enhancement of instruction through the provision of goods and services beyond the normal fiscal allocation of school boards, along with the educational benefit derived from learning to organize, sell, and deal with people. Appendixes include a summary presentation to the Toronto Board of Education and a copy of the questionnaire sent to the principals. (TE)
