Improving and Strengthening Grant Making Organizations: New Directions in Philanthropic Fundraising, No. 45- Joanne B. Scanlan and Eugene R. Wilson, Editors / Paperback / Published 2003
The issues facing today’s grant makers are significant. Although foundations provide only part of the support for nonprofit organizations, obtaining foundation support is often thought to help in raising other forms of support from individuals, corporations, and government. Today, grant makers are questioning how they select grant recipients, how they assess success in their grants, and how they measure their own management. The answers to these and more questions are still being formed. The goal of this issue is to share the questions and invite others to join in suggesting solutions to improve and strengthen grant-making organizations.
The chapters in this issue can be read as loosely interconnected and building on one another. They include an historic overview of grant-making and grant-seeking; views of governance and how mission can be attained through talented grantsmanship; an examination of the principles and practices for effective grantmaking from the Council on Foundations membership in the council; and the benefits of self-evaluation as it has been applied at the David and Lucile Packard Foundation as a way to increase transparency, accessibility, and accountability.

Fundraising For Nonprofit Groups: How To Get Money From Corporations, Foundations, And Government- Mary Ann Zierler-Jasiak / Paperback / Published 2001
Fundraising isn't necessarily part of the Youth Ministry 101 course. Being a skilled fundraiser may not be part of a youth minister's job description either.

In Fundraising and Fellowship, long-time youth minister Mary Ann Zierler-Jasiak dispels the notion of fundraising as a negative. In fact, with the cooperation and input of the teens themselves, fundraising can be a positive part of your youth ministry that not only helps to financially support your programming, but goes a long way in building through common effort a spirit of community and fellowship among the teens as well as others in the parish and neighborhood.Zierler-Jasiak offers full programming tips for six "fundraising events" that go way beyond the usual fare of candy bar sales and car washes to provide real opportunity for spiritual growth among your teens. These events are easily planned and implemented; most take place over one weekend.
