There is likely no one in the country who knows more about fundraising for public schools than Stan Levenson. - Jerold Panas, Best Selling Author and Founding Partner of Jerold Panas, Linzy & Partners Why the new edition of this book is so important for your fundraising efforts: In this revised and updated edition of the book, I have made corrections as needed to the more than 350 available links to enable you to access them with ease and efficiency. I have elaborated and offered suggestions on DonorsChoose.org because it has become so important in the lives of teachers across the USA. I have spent time researching funding agencies for Early Childhood Education because of the importance of early childhood education in the lives of children. I have enhanced the Naming Rights section of the book by adding a number of schools and school districts that have reached out to the community and have become successful in bringing in major dollars in Naming Rights. Their names and accomplishments have been added to this new edition of the book. Also, because so many people have been influenced positively by public school teachers at all levels, I have added a job description for Director of Alumni Relations to the section on Staffing the Development Office. Finally, I talk about The Fund For Portland Public Schools because they come closest to solving the problems that exist today in organizing and articulating Pre-K-12 fundraising.

Stan Levenson was a poor, fatherless kid with few aspirations during the Great Depression and World War II aside from getting into trouble. So it might come as a big surprise that this self-described goof-off went on to make an international name for himself helping school districts around the world reap millions of dollars. When Brooklyn Was Heaven lovingly chronicles a 30-year (1931-61) journey through Brooklyn neighborhoods rich in history and culture, the Borscht Belt of the Catskills, small college towns in upstate New York, military duty in the United States Navy, and a lifestyle that crisscrossed a continent and the globe. Through determination and chutzpah, Levenson graduated from one of the roughest vocational high schools in New York City, attended college, earned advanced degrees including a Ph.D., and transformed fundraising in the public schools. But not before playing the lead in a number of memorable misadventures. A vividly detailed portrait of stickball games, scrap-metal drives, Coney Island capers, Catskill mountain highs, college classics, awkward gropes, Naval adventures, L.A. dreaming, and sheer grit. When Brooklyn Was Heaven is a must read for anyone with a New York connection, those who are fascinated by this joyful place, and all others who are intrigued by the places in-between.

Exploring a subject that is as important as it is divisive, this two-volume work offers the first current, definitive work on the intricacies and issues relative to America's faith-based schools. The Praeger Handbook of Faith-Based Schools in the United States, K–12 is an indispensable study at a time when American education is increasingly considered through the lenses of race, ethnicity, gender, and social class. With contributions from an impressive array of experts, the two-volume work provides a historical overview of faith-based schooling in the United States, as well as a comprehensive treatment of each current faith-based school tradition in the nation. The first volume examines three types of faith-based schools—Protestant schools, Jewish schools, and Evangelical Protestant homeschooling. The second volume focuses on Catholic, Muslim, and Orthodox schools, and addresses critical issues common to faith-based schools, among them state and federal regulation and school choice, as well as ethnic, cultural, confessional, and practical factors. Perhaps most importantly for those concerned with the questions and controversies that abound in U.S. education, the handbook grapples with outcomes of faith-based schooling and with the choices parents face as they consider educational options for their children.
