This bilingual (Spanish/English) book is based on the experiences of members of Project PROJIMO, a rehabilitation program run by people with disabilities in the mountains of western Mexico. Volver a Vivir / Return to Life is about how six people who have spinal cord injuries work together toward independent living and self-sufficiency - for themselves as well as others. The photographs and text, selected by the members themselves, make their stories come alive. This book is an excellent resource for rehabilitation centers, physical and occupational therapists, as well as people with spinal cord injury and their friends and family.

Volver a vivir =: Return to life (Spanish Edition)

This new edition of Fundraising for Social Change is completely revised and updated, and has new chapters on fundraising on the Internet, making fundraising a career, and working with the executive director, and expanded chapters on planning and conducting major gifts campaigns, using direct mail effectively, and conducting capital and endowment campaigns for small groups. 
Fundraising for Social Change is one of the most widely used books on fundraising in the United States. Written for practitioners, it is used not only by those needing a hands-on, specific and accessible how-to book, but also as a required text in dozens of college and nonprofit management courses around the country. It has become a seminal reference for other writers on the topic.

Kim Klein makes the art of fundraising user-friendly. In more than 30 years of fundraising and grantmaking for progressive efforts, I have not found a more worthwhile tool." - Ray Santiago, Seva Foundation, Berkeley, CA
