Sterling’s founders, James Lintott and Roger Silk, wrote the definitive guides on establishing and managing private foundations.  “Managing Foundations and Charitable Trusts: Essential Knowledge, Tools and Techniques for Donors and Advisors” and the second edition of the book, "Creating a Private Foundation: The Essential Guide for Donors and Their Advisors", have received critical acclaim.

This book is a great guide for those interested in charitable foundations.  Every donor should study it.

In Creating a Private Foundation, Roger Silk and Jim Lintott clearly explain a number of different giving strategies - both tax and philanthropic - to help donors make their limited resources go farther. I highly recommend it.

If you are a donor to charity, or if you advise donors, you must have this book. You'll learn more than most experts know and you'll be empowered to have far more impact than you'd ever have thought possible.
