Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every single non-profit organization, no matter its size, will benefit from a comprehensive fundraising plan. Oftentimes the idea of creating a written plan can seem time consuming and take a back seat to actual fundraising execution. No matter how small your organization, foundation, or charity is, or how far along you are into your operations, your group needs a comprehensive, well-written fundraising plan that spells out your strategies, tactics and goals for the year. The results of insufficient planning can become apparent very quickly. In some cases, prospects, solicitations, events and cultivation activities don't get the attention they need. At times the talents and skills of the fundraising teams are not maximized to their fullest potential. And worse than anything, committed donors, on which the organization relies, are neglected.
Download or read book Will written by Will Self and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unflinching, intoxicating, heartfelt, and propelled by an exceptional energy, Will is the long-awaited memoir by Will Self, whose works have been shortlisted for the Booker Prize and translated into over twenty languages. A portrait of the artist as a young addict, Will is one of the most eloquent and unusual depictions of the allure of hard drugs ever written. Will spins the reader from Self’s childhood in a quiet North London suburb to his mind-expanding education at Oxford, to a Burroughsian trip to Morocco, an outback vision in Australia, and, finally, a surreal turn in rehab. Echoing the great Modernist writers of the early twentieth century in its psychedelic stream of consciousness, Will is vividly imagistic and mordantly witty. It is both kunstlerroman and confessional, a tale of excess and degradation, a karmic cycle that leads back to the author’s own lack of . . . will.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sylvia Brownrigg's “wise, intimate, and deliciously entertaining memoir" (Carol Edgarian) reconstructs a poignant story of fathers lost and found When Sylvia Brownrigg received a package addressed to her father that had been lost for over fifty years, she wanted to deliver it to him before it was too late. She did not expect that her father, Nick, would choose not to open it. A few years later, she and her brother finally did. Nick, an absent father, was a would-be writer and back-to-the-lander who lived off the grid in Northern California. Nick’s own father, Gawen—also absent—had been a wellborn Englishman who wrote a Bloomsbury-like novel about lesbian lovers, before moving to Kenya and ultimately dying a mysterious death at age twenty-seven. Brownrigg was told Gawen had likely died by suicide. Reconstructing Gawen’s short, colorful life from revelations in the package takes her through glamorous 1930s London and staid Pasadena, toward the last gasp of the British Empire in Kenya, and from there, deep into the California redwoods, where Nick later carved out a rugged path in the wilderness, keeping his English past at bay. Vividly weaving together the lives of her father and grandfather, through memory and imagination, Brownrigg explores issues of sexuality and silences, and childhoods fractured by divorce. In her uncovering of this lost family, she writes movingly of daughterhood and of parenthood, gradually making her own story whole.

There he finds real friendship and religious bigotry in equal measure. He befriends Ray Shaughnessy, and the two became as close as brothers. Danny and Ray learn to survive everything life has to throw at them-until the day a local gang attack Ray and leave him for dead. In a fury of revenge, Danny is recruited by the Provisional IRA. He is trained to become a sleeper agent by the shady SA. After his first terrorist act, he realizes the terrible choice he has made, but blackmail prevents him from leaving the organization. With the help of one his targets, an MI6 agent, Danny flees Scotland to begin life anew in New Zealand under an assumed identity. But when the Provos find out where he is, Danny finds himself a pawn in an even deadlier game. About the Author: Gerry Cassidy grew up in a small town in the west of Scotland before immigrating to New Zealand fifteen years ago. He has spent the last thirty-five years working in the telecommunications industry and only recently became inspired to write.

Cassidy's next writing project is a murder mystery that centers on Kiwi rookie cops trying to stop a serial killer.
