Praise for Endowment Building

"This comprehensive work shows how endowments can provide multiple
opportunities for donor involvement when the solicitation program

program goals. Emphasizing the critical ethical issues inherent in
marketing and structuring endowment gifts, it is an excellent
reference manual and training guide."

--Joanne Scanlan, PhD, Senior Vice President for Professional
Development Council on Foundations, Washington, D.C.

philosophical, inspirational framework to guide novice and
experienced mission-based organizations. Given the demographic
opportunities and challenges facing the nonprofit world, this book
is a must-read."

Rezensionen

"Endowments are very appealing as dependable sources of income for
nonprofit organizations. Diana Newman's comprehensive work
shows how endowments also can provide multiple opportunities for
donor involvement when the solicitation program is well-designed
and integrated with other fund development and program goals. Diana
emphasizes the critical ethical issues inherent in marketing and
structuring endowment gifts in addition to clear step-by-step
guidelines for constructing the entire campaign. It's an
excellent reference manual and training guide." --Joanne Scanlan,
Ph.D. Senior Vice President for Professional Development, Council
on Foundations

"Endowment funds will make the difference between organizations
which thrive in the future and those which struggle to survive.
Endowment Building by Diana Newman provides both practical,
hands-on advice and a philosophical, inspirational framework to
guide novice and experienced mission-based organizations. Given the
demographic opportunities and challenges facing the nonprofit
world, this book is a 'must-read.'" --Nancy Herrold
Strapp Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer
Buckhorn Children & Family Services

"A comprehensive guide on how to start, grow and maintain an
endowment. Diana also shows how to put theory into practice with
numerous real-life examples and success stories."--Joe Bull
Director of Planned Giving, The Ohio State University

"In this book, Diana points to the importance of an endowment
for any type of nonprofit organization. It is for the beginner and
the experienced person. After you read this book, you will not have
to wake up in the middle of the night to wonder, am I missing
something or am I doing something wrong, you will know what to do
and how to do it. This book is a wonderful tool for new and
emerging community foundations, I wish that a copy had been mine
when I started in this field 25 years ago! The community foundation
field concentrated on current giving rather than endowment building
for several years, now many are coming back to realize the power of
the endowment."--Kay M. Marquet, President/CEO, Community
Foundation Sonoma County (Sonoma CA)

"Endowment Building is an insightful, succinct, easily read
resource on building successful endowment programs. It is a
well-organized guide containing practical suggestions and reminders
