If giving money away was easy, everyone would be a philanthropist. This book, and its supporting resources, is a must read for anyone who is considering creating a charity ….

Adam Aptowtizer has taken his decades of experience in this sector and created a must-have resource for advisors, executives and board members to navigate the maze of starting and running a charitable organization.” … Gena Rotstein, MA, FEA, Executive Director, Place2Give Foundation
Everyone who manages the operations of a charity should have this book within arm's reach. Consultants should carry copies with them to clients and it should be a welcoming gift to every new treasurer of the board.…..Lee Pigeau, Director of Philanthropy, Queensway Carleton Hospital Foundation
A very easy read considering a fairly dry subject. Easy to follow, lots of very concrete examples. If you have any question about charities, this is a must read, and a great reference book.
I have not read a better book on the subject. I have worked for many Charitable organizations, and the information to be gleaned from this book is invaluable when dealing with Charities finances.
