"Nonprofit ventures have few of the traditional supports that are available to other types of organizations. Straddling the for–profit and nonprofit cultures, they inhabit a world not officially recognized, where roadmaps do not exist.

This book provides the best thinking to help nonprofits capitalize on that opportunity."
Bill Shore, Chairman, Community Wealth Ventures

Having been there myself, I can say with great confidence that this book will provide the framework for the planning, launch and operation of a successful and sustainable nonprofit enterprise. Whether you are an investor, manager or board member you need this book to guide you on what can be a very challenging, but rewarding journey."
