According to Tom, what kind of gifts build the basis of a healthy individual fundraising structure

The lesson has been very helpful

Small, ongoing, and unrestricted funds/support

I have learnt the importance of unrestricted support

Unrestricted money can be used for anything. you can use that money for the things that donors generally are not interested in.

Restricted money can be used for certain purpose only.

Rules to abide for fundraising event:

1. set a dollar goal early and stick to it.
2. success is measure d in net income not gross income
3. paln an event that people will enjoy.
4. establish committee with strong chairperson.

Restricted and unrestricted support

Restricted and unrestricted support

I have learned a lot from this module.

Types of support are restricted and unrestricted, restricted example like if government give you support its bidden with conditions of spend it there is time and red line, and what it should be spent for, unrestricted donation is very support full because doesn't held any string condition and you need to make a reserve, you have to pay rent, office equipment, others and none willing to donate such all of those expenses.

Small, ongoing and unrestricted

Is there a process for being identified by funding institutions? How can I make myself more visible or at least be in a position to be notified when funding rounds are coming up?

HR capacity building may be an approach but need to be sure that they are staying with the organization for long time

HR is the key for success of all. It is inevitable to capacitize this resource with a sustainable plan as they can show their capacity with engazement and reward. While performane is evaluated with a great chance to lift up then it results dedication and ownership.

1. INGO who are working for Health Issues focus.
2. Local Religious association which are communities trust on them.

To gain more grant donors for more projects .

It will bring more staff and build staff capacity
