This excel­lent guide can help donors strate­gi­cal­ly plan and imple­ment their phil­an­thropic sup­port to orga­ni­za­tions involved in issues impor­tant to them. They begin with the donor and move on to view­ing the recip­i­ent orga­ni­za­tion as a ​“part­ner.” Fol­low­ing their dis­cus­sion of the orga­ni­za­tion, they exam­ine the mean­ing of the ​“gift.” They end their pre­sen­ta­tion with an exten­sive list of resources for addi­tion­al infor­ma­tion and guidance. 

The authors com­bine ideas and con­cepts with per­son­al sto­ries that offer the rich­ness of their dual per­spec­tives as phil­an­thropist (Charles Bronf­man) and pro­fes­sion­al (Jef­frey Solomon). Their pre­sen­ta­tion is valu­able not only for those seek­ing advice on con­tribut­ing but also for not-for-prof­it pro­fes­sion­als seek­ing contributions.
