I can't comment on the books for the period preceding my arrival.

What I can tell you is that the foundation did not run major funding campaigns. It was financed from the interest on an endowment to create leadership programs for scholars, mentors and fellows. We wanted to do some fundraising. In the final years, we were preparing a package of supporting documentation to demonstrate that we had leadership schools. However, it never became one of the foundation's main activities.
