Customer Reviews

The Nonprofit Handbook

This was very helpful. It walked you through the steps involved, and had helpful tips on more in depth issues.

Great Resource

If you are starting a non-profit or involved with an existing one this text is a wonderful resource. I learned so much and the book was worth a million bucks to our non-profit.

Great Seller

The seller conducted great business. The book was NEW as advertised!!!!! The corners were slightly bent but nothing major. The pages were in great shape. ALL of the CHAPTERS were present....no missing pages or HIGHLIGTED MATERIAL!!!!!!! I got the product in a timely manner. I would definitely conduct business with the sell again or recommend to family and friends!!!!!!

good book to have

In my opinion this is a very good book to have to start you on your way with a nonprofit. I found the information helpful and it made a good resource for me to have in my library. Also recommended: Everything You Never Wanted to Know About Your Nonprofit Corporation by Ms. Cellaneous, The Unknown Attorney.

Excellent overview and resource starting from the beginning

This handbook is good value for the money. It starts right from the stage where one is thinking about incorporating, and gives primers on the incorporation process, writing bylaws, choosing a board, effective and ineffective models of board governance, fundraising and strategic planning, grant-writing, the fiscal business you need to know about and stay on top of, and it even gives you a state-by-state rundown of the pertinent offices, laws, and other requirements.Besides this, there are lean but meaty essays on corporate ethics, quality assurance, small business competition and the nonprofit sector, the pros and cons of coalitions, lobbying, and other political activity. (There is also a chaper in the second edition on the Y2K problem - entertaining reading now.)This information is organized so as to be highly accessible and helpful, and not intimidating. Highly recommended for people who feel dwarfed by the realm of nonprofit management: Here are the basics. You can do it.
