Lessons from Benchmarking: Fast-Forwarding the Maturity of the Fundraising Operation (2007). Nonprofit organizations know only too well the constant challenges of fundraising. Help has arrived in the form of a handy new guidebook. In Lessons from Benchmarking: Fast-Forwarding the Maturity of the Fundraising Operation, coauthors Gary J. Hubbell and Mary K. Reinders focus on collecting and using data to implement and continuously improve fundraising efforts.
After analyzing accumulated data from more than forty organizations in the fields of health care and higher education, Hubbell and Reinders discovered that the problem is not a lack of information, but a lack of knowledge of how to convert that massive data into higher returns. Now available through Amazon.com and the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy
Forces of Change: The Coming Challenges in Hospital Philanthropy (2005). Hubbell concludes from his analysis that hospital philanthropy will undergo significant challenges between the decades of 2010 and 2030. The intersection of positive and negative forces is explored and interpreted. While some predict a "golden age of philanthropy," this monograph presents a much less robust future for hospital philanthropy—especially for community hospitals. Recommendations are offered hospital development professionals to mitigate negative impact. Now available at Amazon.com and the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy
The Decades Ahead (AHP Journal, Fall 2005). This article--selected by the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy as the best article of 2005--follows up Hubbell’s monograph, helping the chief development officer interpret key forces of change. Hubbell argues that the CDO must become an informed interpreter of these external forces, playing a more forceful role in strategic discussions about the hospital’s future.
No Leaf Unturned (CASE Currents, May/June 2006). This article describes how to use several research tools to reconnect with alumni and discover hidden donors. The real breakthrough explored in the article is harnessing research to fuel communication strategies, thereby becoming a much more effective and sophisticated advancement operation. Co-authored with Mary Reinders and Jill Schoer.
Donors of the Future (May 2003, self-published article/workshop discussion guide). Hubbell presents eight distinguishing elements that will define donors of the future.
