Editorial Reviews

Review

Miller explains how fundamental fundraising principles can be incorpartaed into a sustainable fundraising program. The book offers plenty of helpful checklists and sample letters to guide elder-care organizations through the process of creating their own fundraising strategy --Canadian Nursing Home, october 2004

people are living longer than ever before, and partially thanks to the Baby Boomer generation, older adults are nown the fastest growing segment of the population. This will eventually result in more homes for the aged, long-term care facilties, and seniors' centres, most of which will rely on fundraising to support their organization. Luckily, these types of organizations can begin to improve their fundraising techniques right now, with the help of Lorne Miller's development primer Fundraising for the Elderely --charityvillage.com
