in their prgrams and services Since 1985, Gifts to Share, Inc. has had
a successful gifts catalogue program that has been duplicated by many
agencies. Following hundreds of requests for information, this practical
step-by-step guide is ready to assist you. Includes useful tips on promotion
and how to ask for donations.
