Our organization's mission is to improve the quality of life amongst the vulnerable members of the community through equitable access to education, health, and, economic opportunities.
Your mission is too specific and might limit the number of funders your organization could have attracted

A Rural Educational development of the children ,who are not go to the school ,with a reason of earning for the evening meals , we help those child’s to become educated and learn some of the smart skill which help them to earn in furture.
Reduce deforestation in Bong through community engagement.
Good, but very broad in scope. May face competition from many other organizations.
This is good but very wordy. I guest it can be improved.
Very good. But wordy.
It is very broad and there are many competitors that decrease the chance to be compelling.
It is very broad and there are many competitors that decrease the chance to be compelling.
Where? the mission statement is not clear. there are millions of volnurables, people of which community will benefit from your services?
EBA is working to make the education accessible for Afghan girls of grade 7-12 who prhibited attending school by moblizing resources and developing an online learning platform.
To empower indigent youths through education and character development.
Your intentions are very good but, try to reframe your mission statement; it should not have many different sentences.
You tried but you can still communicate your mission with fewer words.
Brave attempt! Though, you need to improve it.
This particular mission statement is likely to attract only a few donors because it is not explicit and the scope is too broad.
With this, you are likely to face a lot of funding competition because your scope is very wide as you aim to cater for each household in Eastern Africa.
This is a bold attempt but it needs to be improved. This mission statement is likely to attract very few donors because it is not explicit. With this mission statement, you are likely to face a lot of funding competition because your scope covers “people in poverty” which could be generalized as “all poor people in the world”.
Our mission statement is to be an internationally competitive science university whose operations are based on high-quality, multidisciplinary research.
We promote education and free science and provide higher education that is based on research.
A good and clear mission. Can be raised funds for with more detailed message.
Very broad mission that will face lots of competition.
To create spaces for engagement between citizens and public institutions for the advancement of socio-economic rights.
Our goal is to give all children the chance to succeed in school, no matter their social circumstances.
It's a broad mission but would likely attract more funders if put into one big umbrella term
Narrow mission that likely attracts mostly to locals and former locals
Our mission is: To educate girls from unwanted pregnancies.
Mission statement too long, mixed up and can face higher competition but also can attract more funders, but rephrase it to be more precise.
Mission statement can attract more funders and competition is not that high since you only focused on a particular age group. However rephrase it and make it simple and attractive to read. Use the "8 words mission statement rule" example: 'Make education accessible (for Afghan girls of grade 7-12) through online learning platform'
Our goal is Digital Empowerment. Through technology we improve lives
Maybe specify where these girls are from and their age?
All children seems a little bit too broad. Is there a specific place where you guys take action?
CPAR Uganda improving the quality of life in households of disadvantaged young adults in Greater Northern Uganda through training and mentoring.
"Educate girls from unwanted pregnancies" is a little confusing. Is it the mission to educate girls so as that they don't get unwanted pregnancies or is it girls borne of unwanted pregnancies that you educate?
"Create spaces for engagement between citizens and public institutions" is sufficiently broad to allow for innovative implementation and as well as using both the "supermarket approach" and the "speciality store approach" to fundraising, I think.
The mission statement of an organization I want to work at is: "Creating opportunities that empower women in the country." (I have slightly adjusted the text for confidentiality reasons)
I think the "Educate girls from unwanted pregnancies" mission posted above is broad enough to attract the interest of many potential donors working on reproductive health for women and girls, while at the same time the organization that has it may face a great deal of competition from similar institutions promoting reproductive rights and reproductive health for girls and women.
The mission statement shown above: "Our goal is Digital Empowerment. Through technology we improve lives", seems to me vey broad and hence could attract many potential donors interested on digitalization and technology. However while being broad at the same time it lacks some specificity which could reduce a bit the quantity of interested donors. Competition for funds from other institutions might be huge due to the ample space that technology has.
Creating opportunities in the rural area for farmworkers
I appreciate the different words you use for your mission statement. It might help to get people away from boring when they read you.
We are committed to removing the barriers that prevent children from succeeding and from being open to the Gospel. Our programs provide for children’s basic needs, including food, clothing, water, and medical care.
Little Big Hearts Foundation.

This mission is likely to attract more donors. because enables youths to have access to quality education it brings many personal and economic benefits.

Enhancing youths participation in climate change and environment protection in a collaborative and problem solving manner while striking balance between humans and nature.
It's likely to attract few donors cause there is competition a lot of foundations are involved in poverty reductions.

@ThaoTran said in Module 1 Discussion: Mission Statement:
Respond to this prompt after completing the content in Module 1.
Post your mission statement in the discussion forum. If your organization does not yet have a mission statement, use the readings from this week to draft one.
Comment on at least two other learners’ mission statements. Indicate (a) whether you think it is likely to attract few or many donors and why and (b) whether you think they are likely to face a great deal of funding competition and why.
all the comments are valid, I think that following each of the lessons has made it easier for me to project clear objectives and make a concise summary of what I want to achieve.
Our mission statement is:
"Rescue and re-home dogs while educating people to end pet overpopulation"
My mission statement is to actively involve African school children in other school curriculum such as be martial arts, Natural nutrition & health, financial literacy and every month a book on self development has to be read and an exam on it. This is an essential knowledge not available to every student or pupil in Africa.
The mission statement is attractive and the advocacy evaluation at the end of the day would be worth while. This will attract donors and it's a well targeted mission statement with less competition if more targeted to a certain locality or probably one you currently reside in. It's intriguing I must say and very personal. It resonates well with donors.
To nurture and develop the HK child in hope and fullness
To provide an inclusive platform to CSOs to promote inclusive policies and democratic governance for the wellbeing of children and youth
Very onpoint and precise to what it is all about. Likely to attract organizations based on consevacy.

Address malnutrition by strengthening local market systems

This will attract many donors as people are passionate about helping children especially those in need. However, there will be many competitors for your organization as there are many organizations that share this mission. Which is wonderful!
Good mission statement, it will attract many donors. You will have many competitors with this type of organization, as there are many organizations with a similar mission.
Connecting today's low-income consumers with the dignified choices of tomorrow
Great in the sense that it is eye-catching and make one stop in your tracks. But still, how do they then know what you do?

New City Kids Mission Statement:
Loving kids for change to create a community of spiritual, leadership, academic, and musical development.
Clear and to the point. Thank you.
Specific and to the point. Solid mission statement.
We are a youth and women empowerment organization with the main aim of collectively bringing women and youth collectively together for the communication and mitigation of global issues and finding applicable and sustainable solutions towards eradicating those issues.
A great mission broad based likely to attract alot of funders
Our mission statement is: Encouraging every child in Nigeria through literacy programs and educational support
Our mission is to provide shelter, assistance, rehabilitation, and medical care to abandoned, abused, and needy animals in the local community, and find homes for these animals through adoption and transport.
After reading the articles in this Module, I would think that the wording may of this mission statement would deter some donors based on this alone. I think it sounds a little vague and at the same time could be said with plain speak to make it more appealing to a larger majority of people.
The mission statement has vague and lofty goals that might discourage a donor that wants to know more about what is actually being done. In one sense it is broad, but almost too broad.
Very well going on the Fundraising Strategy
W.R.A adds value to the work of women's organisations by providing resources to enable them effectively to advance women’s human rights.
It is a broad mission statement that is most likely to bring new funders on board but however creates a large competition pool.
I think this mission statement is somehow narrow and restrict a wide spectrum of funders from having interests in the organisation.It should be broader and more interesting.
Our mission is "to build a more informed and empowered workforce for Africa’s music and entertainment industry".
I like this mission. Your organization will likely face a good deal of competition, but it will also attract lot of donors focused on healing and health, plant-based diets, or organic farmers and other real food producers, etc.
This is a worthwhile, but very broad mission that can attract both lots of donors and lots of competition. Specifying who in the community (e.g., children, at risk teens, differently abled, etc.) may reduce your organization's competition.
Our Mission is to ensure that everyone woman or youth in Cameroon can easily access funds to start or grow their businesses.
Our Mission is “To create a peaceful society through the provision of quality education and food sovereignty”

(B) very precise and straight to the point. This mission statement can attract a great deal of investment to this organization.
Our mission is to enable small holder farmers access quality inputs so as to improve food security and better the lives of small holder rural farmers.
Sustainably reduce acute malnutrition for children under 5 years
I like your idea and I think it will attract a lot of potential funders but my suggestion is, your mission statement is too broad and it's better for you to add an outcome to your mission statement such as:
Help rural youth apply e-commerce and modern agricultural equipments.
BTW this is just a quick observation, I would like to express my apology if I don't use the correct words for the suggestions or hurt your feelings.
Thanks :)
Help struggling young entrepreneurs raise investment capital for profit.
( B) This mission statement is brief and concise and I believe that it can raise a huge amount of investment.
(B) Cool and straight forward. I think this mission statement will attract a good donation soon.
The mission is broad enough to attract many donors despite the competition.
