Customer Rating:
Summary: Not what I was looking for
Comment: Decent book, but I was looking for something a bit more creative with fund-raising ideas. This was more about setting up a fund-raising structure. Didn't help me at all.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Very good resource
Comment: Very helpful. I found many ideas that I could use in my small, rural school.
Customer Rating:
Summary: The ultimate guide to fundraising at PS 87
Comment: This book does have a lot of good ideas but many of the directions are specific to PS 87's personality and atmosphere. Plus if you actually try to use this as a chairperson you find that there aren't enough instructions if you have never done or seen the fundraisers the author writes about.

Summary: A Meaty, Step-by-Step Guide
Comment: I heard the author interviewed on the radio which prompted me to buy this book. The part that got my attention was the fact that she was part of a fund-raising team that raised over $200,000 for her local public school each year for the past 10 years!! How could this be possible? Well, she clearly explains how they built up to this astonishing figure. The part about how to run a successful auction was very insightful. We ran a silent auction at our church this year for the first time and did quite well, but the ideas in this book will really help for next year. This is a meaty, step-by-step guide by someone who has been there and thus has a lot of credibility.
