The Little Book of Gold: Fundraising for Small (and Very Small) Nonprofits Book Reviews

Top Reviews (Amazon)

“OUTSTANDING! I’m going to add my rave review to all the others left here. In fact, I’m using (and attributing) some of his great ideas in a chapter of a book I’ve written–it’s that good. Man, authors don’t usually give such specific advice (and especially, when it’s for a subject that is so small, like a micro-nonprofit). It’s like other authors worry that you’ll steal their ideas, or that nonprofits are all competing with each other and we shouldn’t share ideas. Instead, Erik Hanberg gives specific examples for specific context that totally resonates with anyone who has a board (and any nonprofit is always up for fundraising more money). It’s funny, the way we see the world and the way the world actually works are often two different things, and this book shows how nonprofits don’t just run themselves and exist from the easy goodwill of people’s good hearts, rather, it takes actual work on the part of the employees of a nonprofit to gently steer clients, board members, and donors to do what is best for both themselves and the nonprofit (thus setting up a win-win-win-win…). It’s so easy to talk only in terms of huge nonprofit organizations, like most books do, rather than the realities of a small nonprofit, and I LOVE that this book goes into such detail and such specifics. WELL DONE!!!!”
