Ted Hart and James Greenfield have led another team of experts in creating a sequel to 2005′s Nonprofit Internet Strategies: Best Practices for Marketing, Communications, and Fundraising Success. Internet Management for Nonprofits: Strategies, Tools & Trade Secrets is not a rehash, but a new effort to provide nonprofits with a clear understanding of the effective tools available and how to integrate them.

This review takes its title from one of the chapters. I’m working for a global nonprofit and can truly say that we operate with “no borders.” Our tools are varied and allow us to work across oceans as though we are next-door neighbors. Building an online community for fundraising support, social networking and collaboration, volunteer management and recruitment, web design, multichannel fundraising, e-governance, mobile technology, security, and more, are discussed in depth.

If you’re in nonprofit marketing, fundraising, communications, program content development or a webmaster, Internet Management for Nonprofits is for you.

Conflict of interest notice. The book is edited by Philip Geier who is a friend of mine and one of the articles is written by people involved to with Karma411 -John Murcot, Mark Fasciano and Russell Artzt.

The article they wrote was called Social Collaboration and Productivity- How web 2.0 tools help raise funds and awareness more efficiently.

As the title implies, the chapter was all about the electronic tools and social media that can be used to help in fund raising efforts.

There was a discussion of project management tools like Computer Associates Clarity, Base camp, Wikis etc. There was also a discussion of real time collaboration tools like Voip, Skype and Goggle Wave.

The chapter not only discusses the tools but used real life example of how those tools were used.

It seems logical to me that nonprofit fund raisers would definitely want to use social media because it’s economical and it’s easy to use and because what nonprofits need to do is create communities of stakeholders who can feel aligned more with the nonprofit group.

The book would be primarily of interest to people who are in the nonprofit fund raising field which includes many business people as most business people are involved some point or another in some philanthropy.

Much of what is discussed though also applies to any business or marketing effort, for example there is a chapter on effective web page design, e-governance, recruiting, how to protect your organization and donors from identity theft and lots more.

It’s a good book!
