Author’s Acknowledgments

My sincerest thanks to everyone who helped with the production of this book: PayPal’s Matt Jones and Karen Richards for their editing and research; Clam Lorenz and Tanya Urschel for their expertise and advice; Gokul Nair and Marcus Meazzo for their artistic vision; Cynthia Robinson for her legal review; Janet Isadore and Jonah Otis for their support of PayPal Press.

I’m grateful for the guidance of the Peachpit team: Michael Nolan, David Van Ness, and Jennifer Needham, as well as their patience with a newbie author.

The most rewarding part of writing this book was getting to know some of the nonprofit world’s respected leaders: Katya Andresen, Alia McKee, Mark Rovner, Sandy Rees, Pat Walsh, Kivi Leroux Miller, Dennis McCarthy, Steve MacLaughlin, and Larry Eason. I benefited so much from your generosity with your ideas, materials, and time, and I know the dedicated people running small nonprofits will benefit even more. Thanks to you all.
