Richard Marker, author of Saying Yes Wisely: Insights for the Thoughtful Philanthropist, targets philanthropists of all levels — from the very rich to the occasional donor. The book explains how ‘saying yes wisely’ means that you’ve thought about why you’re giving and why giving is a priority for you. Marker states that while many people are charitable, many don’t know the intricacies of philanthropy such as best practices, core competencies, ethics and laws — all leading to making good, responsible decisions. The book aims to fill that gap and also argues how philanthropy can’t take the place of government, given the current administration’s change in policy.
