In Brief

"Nonprofits subsist on a tragic irony," writes fundraiser Jeff Brooks on his Donor Power Blog. "While they seek to do good in the world, they rely on fundraising--which is a bad thing. That's balderdash. Self-destructive balderdash. Donors love to give." Brooks, who has been serving nonprofits for 18 years, shares his expertise with tips and musings on topics including "Down with focus groups!," "How to get donors to do your work for you," "The best day of the week to send email," and "If THEY build it they will come."
