Donor Relations: The Essential Guide to Stewardship Policies, Procedures, and Protocol. The Newcomer Series.
Taylor, Karla, Ed.; Joyce, Shannon, Ed.
This book discusses various facets of stewardship as it applies specifically to philanthropy and donor relations for institutions of higher education. Stewardship is defined as a way of preserving opportunities for further support, as the legal and public relations protection of institutions, and as a "right" thing to do. Following an introduction, "Stewardship's True Role: To Honor and Protect" by Tracy G. Savage, chapters include the following: "The Basics of Donor Communication" (Irene M. Bunin); "The Basics of Acknowledgment" (Jeanne McKown); "Stewarding Named Funds" (Marcia Novak); "Using Technology To Support Stewardship" (Tammie L. Ruda); "Donor Recognitition Societies" (Tammie L. Ruda); and "Special Events for Special People" (Sherry Noden). Three appendixes provide sample donor relations documents, a list of related current articles, and a bibliography of donor relations resources. (CH)
