"""This book provides a roadmap of concepts and methods to maximize an organization’s potential, focusing on collecting data and providing examples on how such data can be used to seek funding. Matthew broadly defines fundraising as securing desired financial resources from different means to successfully establish institutional vision. This book provide tools to collect information to identify the strengths of the organization and the types of potential partners that can lead to funding, whether that means securing a donor or new partner, successfully arguing for an increase in your department’s or organization’s budget, or writing a grant. The biggest challenge cultural heritage institutions face is financial ruin, which would lead to the loss of historical material that helps us know who we are, why we exist, and how societies function over centuries. This book shows how these unique spaces for learning and enrichment can learn and apply frameworks that help organizations identify their value, impact, and stakeholders (known and unknown), and how to justify the need for more funding and resources."" ~ Meredith R. Evans Ph.D, Journal of Contemporary Archival Studies (Vol. 10, Article 13, 2023)"
