Hello Everyone! It’ s me again and this post is part one of recommended books to assist you with grant writing, fundraising, and nonprofit management. I have used these wonderful books over the years and I can’t tell you how helpful these books are to me.
Some of these books come with a CD-Rom to help beginners or even seasoned professionals grasp concepts and practice their skills. So, please take a gander and I hope these books help you as much as they have helped me. Enjoy!
