During the Fifty Golden Years in which Mr. Hardie advised more than 200 non-profits relative to fundraising, the techniques he developed were intertwined with volunteer leaders, such as Fred Crawford, and were vital to his success and the success of the philanthropic efforts he helped organize. People give to people, not to causes became a truism which he repeated often to institutional trustees and others interested in fundraising - - Mr. Hardie just told them how to do it and gave them the ammunition for success. This book reveals humorous stories about colorful and well-known community leaders, illustrates the motivational points Mr. Hardie imparted to new fundraising volunteers, and presents the history of these significant philanthropic times in Northeast Ohio and across the nation.
