Description & Coverage
Description:

Many institutions facing dwindling state and government funding often rely on the patronage of others in order to establish monetary security. These donations assist in the overall success and development of the institution, as well as the students who attend.

Facilitating Higher Education Growth through Fundraising and Philanthropy explores current and emergent approaches in the financial development and sustainability of higher education institutions through altruistic actions and financial assistance. Featuring global perspectives on the economics of philanthropy in educational settings and subsequent growth and development within these environments, this book is an exhaustive reference source for professors, researchers, educational administrators, and politicians interested in the effects of altruism on colleges and universities.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Global Philanthropy
  • Institutional Autonomy
  • MENA Region
  • Private Giving
  • Shared Governance
  • Social Media
  • Unequal Partnerships
Reviews & Statements

Business managers and administrators of higher education institutions help develop higher education philanthropy, fundraising, and economic development as scholarly research disciplines with a reference for faculty that can also serve as a textbook for courses. They cover studying higher education philanthropy and developing a growth strategy; community, culture, and economic development in higher education fundraising and philanthropy; and higher education fundraising and philanthropic support in action. Among the topics are how institutions of higher education use social media to raise funds, dynamics of collaborations between US foundations and African universities, Islamic philanthropy as a discursive tradition, and a study of alumni giving.
