Achieving Excellence in Face-to-Face Fundraising
As I open my copy of Henry Rosso's 1991 book, "Achieving Excellence in Fund Raising," I cannot help but read Hank's personal comment to me on the cover. He signed my book in April 1992 and said, among other things, "Let the book serve you well." I had taken classes from Hank and listened to him many times. With each passing year of experience, I still learned from the master.
