Charity Marketing

<p>Charities operate within an increasingly challenging environment, with competition for public engagement, funding and volunteers intensifying. High-profile scandals have knocked public trust and the recent Covid-19 pandemic has illustrated how important it is for charities to provide support in times of need and fill the gap left by inadequate public sector provision. Across 12 chapters a diverse group of academics and deep-thinking practitioners present contrasting perspectives and the latest thinking on the challenges within the charity sector.</p><p>The approach of the book contributes to the growing phenomenon of Theory + Practice in Marketing (TPM) presenting different perspectives and theoretical lenses to stimulate debate and future research. </p><p><em>Charity Marketing</em> provides a bridge between the practice of contemporary nonprofit organisations, charity marketing and recent academic insight into the charity sector. Using exemplar case studies of nonprofit and charity brands, this edited volume will be of direct interest to students, academics, marketing practitioners and researchers studying and working in charities, public and nonprofit management, and marketing.</p> Introducing charity marketing: contemporary issues, research and practice; Theoretical foundations for exploring charity marketing; Building powerful charity brands: an inside perspective; 1 Charity marketing and corporate social responsibility; 2 Nonprofit brand and managing nonprofit rebranding strategy; 3 Marketing charities to attract volunteers: time for B2V; 4 Don’t ask, don’t get: the ethics of fundraising; 5 Spoilt for choice?
