Excellence in Fundraising in Canada
A true collaboration of thought and ideas, 'Excellence in Fundraising in Canada' is designed to help practitioners learn about best practice and put the ideas into action. It contributes a uniquely Canadian perspective to the body of fundraising knowledge that exists, and includes contributions from 22 Canadian fundraising professionals, all leaders in their field - each providing a contribution with a Canadian point of view, and a Canadian perspective. Each chapter addresses and contributes to an aspect of a total development program, and the reader can pick and choose from specific chapters they wish to access, each cross-referenced to other chapters. 'Excellence' will make an ideal textbook for college, university, and community courses on fundraising and resource development, and will serve as a valuable resource for both new professionals and those in mid-career who may have a strength in one area of development, but not another. In 'Excellence' the authors have brought the Canadian perspective to the professional practice of fundraising.

Tales from the Trenches
The theme of this book will be around life as a fundraiser. Fundraising is not a bad word. It's what I do. And I can honestly say, it is a pretty noble profession. It wasn't always a profession - many people "fell" into fundraising - they started their careers in something very different.My goal is to share some of the stories from the fundraising world. I will document some of the things I have learned from "being in the trenches". Being in the trenches, you ask? Am I dramatic?Nope.There are usually only three occasions where one would use the word campaign:1.Fundraising2.Politics3.War (hence the reference to trenches)I do hope you enjoy the book and my lessons learned. In some instances, I have given a "Second Thought" to the original article, particularly in light of this COVID-19 pandemic and the consequences that charities are feeling. I may not have all of the answers, but I try to tell it like it is. I am so proud to call myself a fundraiser.L'chaim (to life!)
