"Diana Newman is to be commended for forthrightly addressing the heretofore largely taboo issue of race and culture in fund development and providing a variety of relevant examples that nonprofit organizations can learn from."
— from the Foreword by Emmett D. Carson, president and CEO, The Minneapolis Foundation

"This book not only helps us understand how culture impacts philanthropic giving but also outlines what fundraisers can do to develop support from different populations. Most important of all, however, the author makes the case for commitment of leadership if the organization's efforts to be inclusive are to have integrity."
— Eugene R. Tempel, executive director, The Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University

"Opening Doors is the how-to guide that nonprofits who work with minority communities have been waiting for. It is chock full of useful, practical information to guide organizations of all sizes in how to grow their institutions, better serve their constituencies, and secure their economic future."
— Raul Yzaguirre, president, the National Council of LaRaza
