The Accidental Fundraiser: A Step-by-Step Guide to Raising Money for Your Cause
Are you a volunteer with an organisation, school, or project that needs to raise money? The Accidental Fundraiser is a how–to resource that guides you through the process of raising money from your community.
The book presents eleven proven fundraising strategies that are easy to carry out and don t require significant funds, large numbers of people, or extensive knowledge of fundraising.
The authors, Stephanie Roth and Mimi Ho, show how to choose the right fundraising strategy (from house parties to bowl–a–thons) and include step–by–step instructions for carrying out all of the activities.
In addition, The Accidental Fundraiser contains a wealth of worksheets and practical tips.

Reviews
“The Accidental Fundraiser fills a big gap on my shelf of indispensable books on fundraising. I′ve been waiting for years for someone to write this book, so I could stop hemming and hawing when people ask me how to raise money for their PTA or local theatre group. Stephanie Roth and Mimi Ho have produced a common–sense, down–to–earth guide that′s based on years of solid experience in grassroots fundraising. It′s easy to read and full of forms and checklists that will show the most inexperienced fundraiser the path to success.”

“The Accidental Fundraiser is a testimonial that people find a way to make a difference––even if it only starts with a car wash or a garage sale. Buy it and remind yourself: anything is possible.”
