This is the first empirically-grounded and theorised account of the identity, characteristics and motivation of fundraisers in the UK. Based on original data collected during a 3-year study of over 1,200 fundraisers, the book argues that it is not possible to understand charitable giving without accounting for the role of fundraising.

Beth Breeze co-founded and now directs the Centre for Philanthropy at the University of Kent, where she is also a senior lecturer in Social Policy. She worked as a fundraiser and charity manager for a decade before moving into academia where she conducts research and teaches courses on philanthropy and fundraising. She has written the annual Coutts Million Pound Donor Report since 2008, co-authored Richer Lives: why rich people give (2013) and The Logic of Charity (2015), and co-edited The Philanthropy Reader (2016).
