E-Books →For A Good Cause A Practical Guide to Giving Joyfully

Through her work with countless female philanthropists, Diane Lebson discovered that there was no definitive guide volunteers and activists could turn to for guidance in navigating the day-to-day activities associated with doing good in the world-so she wrote one. Leveraging the skills and experiences she cultivated over more than twenty-five years as a nonprofit executive, board member, and consultant, For A Good Cause offers practical tips on how to "do" philanthropy. In chapters divided up by specific activities-such as serving on a board, advocating for a cause, starting your own philanthropic venture, becoming a fearless fundraiser, and more- Diane offers practical advice on how to professionalize your philanthropic engagement and make a greater impact. Rounded out with information about best practices, checklists, and profiles of inspiring leaders, For A Good Cause is the do-gooder's go-to resource for giving joyfully.
