Goodwill International is on Twitter, American Cancer Society now fundraises on Second Life, and Susan G. Komen’s “Race For the Cure” has roughly half a million “likes” on Facebook. The way we communicate is changing rapidly, and as a result, so are the most nimble nonprofit organizations.

But successful nonprofits don’t start and end with social media and emerging technology. They still run effective awareness campaigns, they still structure smart, they still hire killer talent. The difference is, they’ve embraced the Digital Age.

The Future of Nonprofits: Innovate and Thrive in the Digital Age (released May 3) is the new playbook for nonprofit professionals in the 21st century. Co-authored by two nonprofit game changers – David J. Neff and Randal C. Moss – this book reveals how the future of innovation, internal entrepreneurship, fundraising and social media communications are going to radically reshape the landscape of nonprofits in the next five years.

  • Why innovation is stifled at the average nonprofit – and how to change that
  • How to hire, train, manage and inspire “internal entrepreneurial” employees – the kind who push mercilessly toward trends of the future
  • What the future of fundraising will look like: Digital channels, social gaming, and alternative currencies!
  • How to engage volunteers through Twitter, Flickr, geotagging, and iPhone apps
  • Case studies of the most innovative nonprofit campaigns
