  • Hosted Fundraising Event: How to Secure Your Funds Vol
    PM World Journal Hosted Fundraising Event: How to secure your funds Vol. VII, Issue I – January 2018 by Christelle Leonetti www.pmworldjournal.net Student Paper Hosted Fundraising Event: How to secure your funds1 Christelle Leonetti ABSTRACT Nonprofit organizations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) represent more than 10 million organizations throughout the world and most of them use fundraising to collect money for their programs. However, they do not use the same methods or have the same results. Fundraising can fail and let the organization without fund and with a negative cashflow depending of the method used and the event planned. Therefore, this paper is developed to analyze the different methods used to raise funds using Multi-Attribute Decision making and determine which one is the best and most effective to use to create a fundraising contract. Based on the analysis, only using one method ensures a low rate of success therefore organizations must be creative when creating their fundraising strategy and aimed at organizations as well as individuals. Key Words: fundraising, event planning, termination, funds, contract, relative weighting INTRODUCTION The American Association of Fundraising Professionals’ 2016 “the Fundraising Effectiveness Survey” report states that the amount raised between 2014 and 2015 by 9,922 nonprofit organizations in the United States is $8,628,240,699. How do those organizations raise so much money? They use online fundraising (Causes, Crowdrise), grants, financial endowment or they use their network to communicate directly with potential donors by organizing events that combine a just cause with a moment of sharing. Those events can be categorized in 3 different types: self- managed events that the organization manages by itself to raise money, one of the most famous being the “Monaco Red Cross Ball” organized yearly since 1948 by the Red Cross.

  • Submission to the Senate Ctte. on Charity Fundraising in the 21St Century
    Submission to the Senate Ctte. on Charity Fundraising in the 21st Century Background to the PFRA The Public Fundraising Regulatory Association (PFRA) is the self-regulatory body for face to face fundraising in Australia. Face to face fundraising is one of a number of methods used by charities across Australia to generate funding. It provides significant funding that allows charities to provide vital services for local communities and to help solve some of the greatest global issues. Established in February 2015, the role of the PFRA is to make sure that the right balance is maintained between the duty of charities to ask for donations and the right of the public to experience high standards of behaviour from our members’ fundraisers. The PFRA is a charity-led, membership-based association. Members include those charities that benefit from face to face fundraising and the professional fundraising suppliers that support charities in this work. A complete list of PFRA charity members is available as Annex B. The PFRA is governed by a Board of Directors elected PFRA members. The current members of the PFRA Board include senior fundraisers from Plan International, Australian Red Cross, and Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation. The PFRA is unique in the fundraising sector in that it is the only organisation that has been established specifically to regulate one type of fundraising and ensure compliance with a Standard. In addition to setting standards for face to face fundraisers, the PFRA rigorously checks that fundraisers comply with its Standard through a quality assurance program, as well as enforcing the Standard through a penalty, sanctions and remediation regime.

  • Quarterly Report on Private Sector Partnerships and Fundraising Strategy for the Executive Board
    Quarterly report on private sector partnerships and fundraising strategy for the Executive Board Quarter 3: July-September 2020 Note on the third quarterly report to the Executive Board on the private sector partnerships and fundraising strategy for 2020–2025 Attached is the third quarterly report on the private sector partnerships and fundraising strategy for 2020–2025. A brief overview of the third quarter from July to September 2020 was presented at the recent informal session with the Executive Board on the implementation of the strategy. This report provides the same level of information and detail as did the two previous quarterly reports, following a similar format. The next report, which will be issued in 2021, will cover all of 2020, the first year of the five-year strategy, and will therefore be more comprehensive. Another informal session with the Executive Board will be scheduled to present that annual report. Management acknowledges the overall comments during the discussion of the second quarterly report at the Board’s second session, in particular in relation to pillar 1 on impact. Management is eager to receive member feedback and specific proposals for changes in the way that information on impact is reported. At the recent informal session, Executive Board members suggested various approaches, including reporting focused on region and thematic area. This is an opportunity to consider a full range of options and ensure that the level of information reported meets Executive Board needs during the second year of the strategy. Questions regarding the third quarterly report may be sent directly to Tim Hunter, Director, Private Sector Partnerships and Fundraising, at [email protected].
