Money Well Spent

Money Well Spent provides an intelligent blueprint for charitable giving for philanthropists who demand the best results from their own foundations or the charities they support.

Major amounts of philanthropic money all too often goes to waste, failing to achieve stated goals or make true change happen. But philanthropy is changing, with strategic philanthropy becoming much more activist, and results-oriented entrepreneurs are driving much of that change. The authors, executives at one of the largest and most influential foundations in the USA, guide philanthropists and their advisers towards the most effective strategies to achieve real and lasting change. Drawing on examples from many different foundations, the authors show what works and what doesn't when devising the best ways to bring in the most meaningful results.
