These small aid organizations, now ten thousand strong, sidestep the world of professionalized development aid. Instead, NGOs launch projects built around personal relationships and the skills of volunteers. This book draws on fieldwork in the United States and Africa, web data, and IRS records to offer the first large-scale systematic study of these groups.
