How To Save The World
Evaluating Your Choices
When to say Yes to requests to Donate Now
Recognizing that impactful change sometimes begins with the work of one person, Dr. Mayer has now created a blueprint for individual donors who want to make a difference but want to know more about evaluating their options. It will also be relevant for those staffing and leading institutional foundations and nonprofits.
"Excellent guide on how to save the world. I admire the clear use of language and well explained tactics on how to make good and useful choices for supporting the charitable organisations that may make a difference. Well done Dr. Mayer in becoming a world saver against your father’s advice."
- Jane Lake Birt, London, England
“Can one person really save the world? Well maybe not alone, but once again Steven Mayer shows us that we are all part of a larger community, and our collective actions can and DO make a difference. A great read for any donor who wants to leave the world a better place.”
- Steve Joul, President and CEO, CommunityGiving.org
"How To Save The World spotlights how to help the millions of desperate people in the world. Two decades ago, I co-authored a book with the subtitle How the World Is Changed. The world is changed in part by people directing their resources where those in need can be helped. This book tells you how to do that strategically, effectively, and personally. If everyone followed the guidance here, the lives of millions could be improved."
- Michael Quinn Patton, Founder and Director, Utilization-Focused Evaluation
"Finally, a recipe with realistic ingredients that will help non-profits such as mine acquire for real guidance. Based upon years of experience and understanding of philanthropic culture, Steven Mayer has unselfishly made it plain and simple for us to follow. Onward!"
