This is the first empirically-grounded and theorised account of the identity, characteristics and motivation of fundraisers in the UK. Based on original data collected during a 3-year study of over 1,200 fundraisers, the book argues that it is not possible to understand charitable giving without accounting for the role of fundraising.

“The New Fundraisers successfully argues that in order to understand charitable giving research efforts must broaden their perspectives beyond the donor. For fundraising practitioners, this book moves beyond the ‘‘how-to’’ genre and encourages reflection on the impact of fundraising. For researchers, the book contributes new empirical data based on the experiences of UK fundraisers and offers the theoretical development of fundraisers as creative professionals.” Voluntas
