dc.description.abstractNonprofit organizations are only as successful as their communication--how well they convey critical needs and persuade constituents to help answer them. Experience of development personnel at Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity suggests technical writing techniques can assist nonprofit organizations to communicate more effectively with their constituents. Though technical writing is virtually unheard of among nonprofits and literature addressing both topics is almost nonexistent, existing literature on technical writing, nonprofit management, and fundraising combine with the documentation portrayed in the following case study to clearly show that technical writers have much to offer the as yet untapped nonprofit sector.--Abstract.
