Management: leadership & motivation; Non-profitmaking organisations

The Unseen Fundraiser is an essay collection for nonprofit fundraisers, executive directors, board members, and founders working in small organizations with limited resources and high expectations.

Written by a veteran fundraiser with more than thirty years of experience, the book blends practical insight with personal and often humorous stories from the field. It speaks directly to small-shop fundraisers and early-career development professionals who manage boards, donors, and institutional pressure while doing work that is frequently invisible and undervalued.

Rather than teaching fundraising tactics or formulas,

The Unseen Fundraiser focuses on what actually sustains nonprofit work: relationships, judgment, adaptability, clarity, and persistence. The essays reflect the realities of small teams, unclear roles, weak infrastructure, challenged communication, and the emotional toll of keeping organizations afloat with limited support.

This book is intended for nonprofit professionals, board members, and students entering the sector. It is suitable for professional development, board training, and classroom use.

Clear-eyed and grounded, The Unseen Fundraiser names the work as it is-and the people who do it.
