The opportunity to publish a high-quality coffee table book allows your organization to celebrate your historical heritage, and to present your community with prestige and distinction.

Here is how our cost-free fund-raising program actually works

You provide the content you would like included in the book as well as having editorial privileges.  HPN Books handles all the required book-design tasks including editing, print-production, marketing and sales, and may also assist in the hiring of renowned photographer(s) and writer(s) to provide additional content, all at no-risk or cost to you.

HPN Books’ 45 years of successful track-record in helping organizations and communities raise funding through the publication of Community Heritage and Cityscape coffee-table books show that an organization  or town of virtually any size can financially benefit from such a publication.

Beyond Fundraising, our stunning coffee-table books are an ideal medium for a City, State, and/ or Chamber of Commerce to promote Tourism and Economic Development, and institutions such as Museums, Charitable Organizations, and Universities to showcase & enhance their messages.
