Reinventing Philanthropy : A Framework for More Effective Giving, Hardcover by Friedman, Eric, ISBN 1612345727, ISBN-13 9781612345727, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US Friedman argues that philanthropy, as an ideal guiding people's charitable giving, needs to be re-invented to maximize positive impact. Th is organized into three sections. In the first, he goes over the limits of historical philanthropy, motivations behind charitable giving, and why it's important to think with one's head as well as one's heart. He describes two kinds of givers, "do-gooders" and "do-besters," advocating for the latter sort of giving. The second and longest section outlines several practical strategies for effective giving that include defining one's mission, selecting causes and organizations to work with based on performance, selecting charities, starting up one's own projects, volunteering and more. A final section of two chapters delivers concluding thoughts on the selfish giver in all of us and reinventing philanthropy. Potomac Books is an imprint of University of Nebraska Press.
