Reviews
"The New Fundraisers successfully argues that in order to understand charitable giving research efforts must broaden their perspectives beyond the donor. For fundraising practitioners, this book moves beyond the ''how-to'' genre and encourages reflection on the impact of fundraising. For researchers, the book contributes new empirical data based on the experiences of UK fundraisers and offers the theoretical development of fundraisers as creative professionals." Voluntas
"Few people 'get' donors and fundraisers like Beth Breeze. Her encyclopaedic knowledge combines with thorough professional analysis to provide an indispensable resource for the entire voluntary sector." Ken Burnett, author, Relationship Fundraising and other books.
"This book provides an important insight into the way fundraising actually works. In doing so Beth Breeze nails the lie that fundraisers force people to act against their will." Peter Grant, City University of London
