Two years ago something incredible happened. www. sofii .org

Some people came together to test an idea. www. sofii .org

The Joffe Foundation

The White Lion Press

The idea was simple www. sofii .org

To create a place to share our experiences www. sofii .org

To share knowledge www. sofii .org

To share what worked … www. sofii .org

And what didn’t . www. sofii .org

A place to record our history www. sofii .org

To celebrate the very best of us . www. sofii .org

A place everyone can get to… www. sofii .org

To raise more money ... www. sofii .org

To make the world better . www. sofii .org

This simple idea is transforming the way we learn… www. sofii .org

from each other . www. sofii .org

SOFII is a website... www. sofii .org

And a charitable foundation . www. sofii .org

11,000+ visits from 7,000 fundraisers every month and growing all the time. www. sofii .org

There are over 750 pages of fundraising resources… www. sofii .org

Available to anyone … www. sofii .org

For free . www. sofii .org

Fundraisers are grateful . www. sofii .org

“ I am going to introduce SOFII to over 250 delegates at the South Asian International Fundraising Workshop in Agra, for there is immense treasure there and many of the budding fundraisers ought to know of this. Hope this will reach you to a lot many more SOFII activists. Congratulations once again for the tremendous work done.” Surat, fundraiser’s training organisation, India www. sofii .org

“ We LOVE SOFII! You are our secret weapon for ideas.” Karen, CEO, United Way chapter, USA www. sofii .org

The SOFII pilot has proven that fundraisers have an insatiable need to share and learn www. sofii .org

It is time to move beyond the pilot. www. sofii .org

In 2010 SOFII will be relaunched . www. sofii .org

Still free , but… www. sofii .org

Easier to look at.

Easier to use.

Easier to add more exhibits.

We will keep breaking our own records.

Even if we do nothing SOFII will keep growing.

But that isn’t good enough.

Fundraisers want a museum.

Fundraisers want a hall of fame…

Fundraisers want information, inspiration and new ideas.

Fundraisers want to help each other be successful.
