Major Topics in The Little Book of Gold


Learn how to:


Board Giving


  • Approach a Board of Directors about board giving and "ask without asking"
  • Deal with different kinds of board members - those who don't want to give, who see themselves as "rebels," those who are already good givers, new board members, and more.
  • Set up monthly giving for board members
  • Increase board giving a year later


Asking Outside the Board


  • Ask without sounding desperate
  • Build more monthly donations
  • Get "loose change" donations
  • Set up online giving
  • Thank donors so they want to give again


Fundraising Events


  • Avoid events that suck your time for not-enough money
  • Get more money out of events you currently throw
  • Set up one of the most lucrative fundraising events that no one ever thinks of


New Grants


  • Be your best self
  • Find new grant opportunities easily
  • Get your foot in the door


Thinking Big


  • Build your donors from the year before
  • Set up donor levels without giving away too much
  • Stay friends with donors


Thinking Bigger


  • Evaluate whether your non-profit can handle a capital campaign
