Knowledge

Beyond studies and reports, we also work on publications and long-term projects to build knowledge in the field, specifically about the study of nonprofit organizations.

In 2020, Melissa Brown spoke several times about fundraising and giving. One session occurred on August 19, 2020 with Jay Frost. He recorded it and you can see it at https://www.facebook.com/donorsearch.net/videos/725326618013644/

Authors Meehan and Jonker retained MSBrown & Associates to do some background research, bibliographic sleuthing, and forecasts about charitable giving. This book is an "actionable guide that executives, staff, board members, and donors can use to jumpstart their own performance and to achieve extraordinary results for their organization." 

With Xioanan (Coco) Kou, I wrote a chapter in the 3rd edition (2010) of Achieving Excellence in Fundraising about generational differences in giving. The book is a useful guide to fundraising generally, with topics ranging from planning to using social media.

 

In the 4th edition (2015), I had the terrific privilege of working with James Greenfield, ACFRE, FAHP, on a chapter about budgeting for fundraising.
