Even some of the finest fund development programs have leaks—pockets of inefficiency that, left unaddressed, will continue to reduce the support the nonprofit organization receives from its fundraising program. The Leaky Bucket: What's Wrong with Your Fundraising and How You Can Fix it is a groundbreaking book that shows you how to find the leaks and plug them quickly and effectively.
This book was inspired by coauthor Ellen Bristol's online assessment, the Leaky Bucket Assessment for Effective Fundraising. Ellen shares her expertise in ways to plan, manage, and improve fundraising performance based on the continuous improvement method. Linda Lysakowski, ACFRE, adds her 30-plus years of nonprofit experience as practitioner, consultant, multipublished author, and thought leader. These two powerful voices provide a wealth of insights into ways you just might be losing ground in your fundraising efforts, with guidance that shows you what you can do to improve results, right now and in the future.
The authors provide some surprising insights from the Leaky Bucket survey, utilized as a springboard to the discussions throughout the book. Here are a few examples.
This book is a must-read for every nonprofit fundraiser, senior executive, and board member. Raising money is truly mission critical. The authors detail every area where your agency can improve results, not just for today but for year after year after year.
Here’s what readers are saying:
