@Kolawoleoye said in Need help on how to get youth off the streets.:

Taking you off the street is my core concerned, by way of engaging them through vocational training, or posting them to organisation/businesses where they could learn skills, and most importantly where stipend or free launch can be given to them as a way or sources of incentive or encouragement to spur them to be more focus on what they training them for. the path of life our youth choose to live here is worrisome and dangerous. pls help with ideas on how to get this done. thanks team.

In which country please?

@Menub said in Attaching a cost to voluntarism for fundraising:

Will my volunteering institution grow if I attach financial cost to my volunteers to volunteers for institutions and also attached a fee for people to volunteer with my institution?

Volunteering is all about giving back to the community. It is based on the the principle of donating time and energy for the benefit of other people in the community as a social responsibility rather than for any financial reward

Good day everyone, I am Olusegun Festus, I am working as sales manager with Dexamedica, i am team builder and business developer. The founder of Ayosoji Model College a non profit private school to give back to my community. I obtained my Bsc in Business administration management from bilingual university of Togo, National Diploma from federal polytechnic Bida and higher Diploam certificate in computer science from Olabisi onabanjo University. I joined his community to develop myself more in order to achieve more now and in the nearest future. Info.amcedu@gmail.com
At Ayosoji Model College, We are providing free education for the sons and doughters of the less previleged in our community, I discovered that many children are rooming the streets everyday because of the lack of money to sponsor their education by their parents, I discovered that there are many children sleeping under the bridges in my community because their parents are no more and nowhere for them to go to for their up bringing, I discovered also that many children are subjected to hard laboure and sexual arasment before they can have a daily meal in my community. I am planning to have boarding facilities to cater for those with no parent, and day school for those that will choose to be staying with their respective parents. This is the mission I am giving to do on earth, In the past, I have tried a lot of entrepreneurs businesses which did not succeed because I was doing a wrong job. I am applying for this fund to remodeling and expand our school, I knew with helping hands these children can have a better tomorrow, I want to give them hope for a better future, hope for the hopeless, I want to be giving them happiness they are lacking that forced them to be sleeping under the bridges, I want to deliver them from their problems by putting smiles on their faces. But, There is no way I can achieve these without a support. Thanks in anticipation of your support of this mission.

That sounds like a fantastic project @Festusfaith!

Do you have ideas, questions, or thoughts about fundraising for your initiative? This is a great place to discuss!

what should I do in order to attract support for my school? In other words? what price must I pay to get funded for my NGO?

Hello please I'm in need of team member or members for assignment on funds raising: connecting with donors

Hello @Nnabuihegabriel, thank you for posting! Have you tried posting in the course discussion board itself? You might have more luck there :)

Also, if you go into the course and select "Teams," you can see which teams have open spots and decide to join one there!

Happy Learning!

Wonderful discussion!

I recommend Global Giving as a stunning crowdfunding platform globally. Currently my project is active in Global Giving platform https://goto.gg//37029. Crowdfunding is mostly recommended to grass root organisation for rising fund for their projects and be accountable, steward and transparent toward implementing the project as they will use their project audited report to request grant from various foundations and donors. Any one who is passionate and would like to volunteer on crowdfunding fundraising please reach out at beda.tarimo@udf.ngo and we will work and learn together practically

Chears!
