2. LBGF Executive Summary 
The Lee Bromley Golf Foundation is a “Grass Roots” initiative and “First Touch” program that 
introduces golf to disadvantaged children from deprived areas, with the purpose of providing them 
with the tools, knowledge and core values to excel in life. 
LBGF is a youth development organisation that incorporates the Long Term Athlete Development 
(LTAD) model with age appropriate skills activities to assist in the physical, emotional and social 
development stages that all individuals experience. LBGF teaches 11 core values; 
Integrity 
Self-Respect 
Courtesy 
Sportsmanship 
Confidence 
Perseverance 
Patience 
Social Integration 
Responsibility 
Judgement 
Punctuality 
More than a golf development centre, LBGF develops children physically, intellectually, emotionally 
and socially, providing a positive impact on children, their families and their communities through 
the great game of golf. It provides the perfect framework t 
for optimal growth, development and 
maturation through golf. 
Numerous studies document the direct value of children participating in sports. These studies 
demonstrate that involvement in development programs, such as the programs to be run by LBGF, 
results in reducing the potential to become involved in drugs, sex, crime and gang-related 
behaviors. Furthermore, it gives children the grounding to build character and learn important life 
skills. The economic, social and personal value of investing in the lives of children produces a 
positive impact on the communities and country. 
LBGF is a Non-Profit Trust with 8 (eight) appointed Trustees; 
Mr Lee 
Bromley 
Mr Morgan 
Nzuza 
Mr Bigboy 
Hlongwane 
Mr Steven 
Sibetha 
Mrs Lee-Anne Mr Iain Ewing Mr Guy Smith 
Bromley 
Mr Mlondi 
Mlotshwa 
The Trust’s main objective is to enrich the lives of disadvantaged children through golf. The Trust 
will be involved in activities that promote sport, specifically golf, for all impoverished, previously 
and currently disadvantaged youth in South Africa. Through these activities, it is envisaged that the 
children with whom the Trust will work, will gain new skills with which to better themselves 
through learning important life and social skills, and empowering themselves with the skills to grow 
up to be successful citizens and leaders in their communities.

3. LBGF Mission Statement 
4. Objectives of LBGF 
LBGF’s main objective is to enrich the lives of disadvantaged children to empower them and 
give them a chance at a brighter future;

throughout KwaZulu Natal; 
Establish, implement and consistently manage a coaching philosophy with structured levels of 
progression; 
Create national and international awareness of the Trust’s projects and the coaching model; 
Implement a corporate development process to align with business partners that share the 
same vision and are looking to invest through their Corporate Social Investment initiatives; 
Train certified coaches, mentors and assistants for each project run by the Trust; 
Integrate non-athletic components into the Trust’s projects, such as educational assistance, 
counselling, medical evaluation and community service; 
Engage with local, provincial and national government to identify new project areas, and 
request assistance in creating awareness and the development of corporate alliances; 
Enroll each child who has participated in a project as members of a golf club, affiliated to the 
South African Golf Association, with official handicaps; 
Establish and implement a state of the art training academy; 
Develop and implement a Long Term Athlete Development Model;

shall be paid and invested.
Expand into new areas within KwaZulu-Natal to provide program access to all disadvantaged 
children in the province, through the implementation of the LBGF Strategic Plan.

International Golf Bodies. 
Continue to develop the corporate alliance base and fundraising efforts to ensure financial 
stability and sustainability of the program. 
Ensure the LBGF Coaching Philosophy and Methodology is consistently administered and 
delivered in all LBGF Projects. 
t 
5. Keys to Success 
Implementation of a sound Coaching Accreditation Program. 
Procurement of state of the art coaching and training equipment, technology and applications. 
Utilise the schools system to enrol children into LBGF and compliment current schools physical 
education and sports curriculums. 
Creation of partnerships with reputable tertiary education institutions and the set up of 
scholarships for LBGF children with elite skills level in academics and/or sport.
t 
6. Situation Analysis 
The need for youth golf programs is validated and magnified by information that attributes 
long-term value to children in these programs. Numerous studies document the direct value 
of children participating in sports. These studies demonstrate that involvement in 
development programs, such as LBGF, results in reducing the potential to become involved in 
drugs, sex, crime and gang-related behaviours. Furthermore, it gives children the grounding to 
build character and learn important life skills. The economic, social and personal value of 
investing in the lives of children produces a positive impact on the communities and country. 
LBGF provides opportunity that serves as a personal reference for children throughout their 
lives. LBGF wants to empower the children to grow up to be successful citizens and leaders in 
their community. Offering hope and opportunity for a better future is what drives us. 
7. Cato Ridge Country Club – LBGF Cato Ridge Project Overview and Responsibilities 
LBGF will set up and launch a project in partnership with Assmang at the Cato Ridge Country Club, 
situated in Cato Ridge, Ethekwini, South Africa. Mr Tim Chisale, a member of Cato Ridge Country 
Club will head up the project as its Head Coach and will be responsible for the day to day 
operations of the project. The project will be known as LBGF Cato Ridge Project and will enrich the 
lives of disadvantaged children in the Cato Ridge area. 
Overview 
Assmang, the owner of the Cato Ridge Country Club asset will partner LBGF in the LBGF Cato Ridge 
Project and project operations will commence, as of 01 September 2014. Both parties’ 
responsibilities are outlined under “Project Partner Responsibilities” below. 
LBGF has the required expertise and coaching model to fulfil Assmang’s objectives in terms of golf 
development at Cato Ridge Country Club. In addition, LBGF has created a unique and innovative 
process to implement its comprehensive program to coach and nurture beginner golfers through all 
the golfing stages to elite professional golfers. 
LBGF prescribes to the Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) Model which uses appropriate 
training aims at each stage of an athlete’s physical, cognitive and emotional development. 
Producing elite level golfers is a long term process and LBGF has developed its own, effective 
model, using LTAD principles and taking into consideration the life and cultural styles, that 
makes South Africa, unique unto its own.
LBGF will implement a unique and effective, progressive development process to ensure that the 
project becomes successful and sustainable;

Phase 4 
Level 2 Assessment
LBGF is best suited for the project of setting up the LBGF Cato Ridge Project due to its superiority 
over other golf development organisations in South Africa in all aspects of youth development, 
including, but not limited to; 
LBGF has reached out to over 1600 (one thousand six hundred children) in just over 1 (one) year 
of operations. 
LBGF has a coaching model that is based on LTAD principles and yet simple enough for children 
to understand and quickly grasp the fundamentals of golf. 
LBGF teaches children how to build character and learn important life skills through golf. 
LBGF’s sound financial and operational stability plan will ensure that it achieves sustainability in 
a relatively short time. 
LBGF is not only prepared to develop from Grass Roots level, it is also prepared to teach in the 
Grass Roots environment – Taking golf to the children, therefore creating a captive audience and 
not expecting the children to incur additional costs to get to coaching sessions. 
LBGF’s program introduces children to golf and assists them through all the different levels and 
stages of their golf career, right through to professional / elite level. 
PROJECT RESPONSIBILITIES 
Assmang, as a partner in the LBGF Cato Ridge Project, will allow LBGF the use of the Cato Ridge 
Country Club facilities without charge. Assmang will also allow LBGF to publicise the project and its 
partnership with Assmang, for marketing and communicative t 
purposes. These are the only 
responsibilities of Assmang in the LBGF Cato Ridge Project. Should Assmang wish to be involved in 
any marketing, events, corporate alignment process, financial or sponsorship assistance of 
equipment, uniforms, events, prizes and/or coaching fees, it will be entirely at Assmang’s discretion 
and is certainly not a pre-requisite to their involvement in the partnership with LBGF. 
LBGF will be responsible for the entire operation of the LBGF Cato Ridge Project and the costs 
incurred in doing so. All children participating in the coaching sessions and the LBGF program will 
be required to complete a registration form and indemnity. LBGF is responsible for the coaching 
fees and costs associated with the implementation and administration of the program and will be 
required to adhere to the rules of Cato Ridge Country Club and as laid down by Assmang. 
LBGF will be allowed to use their own equipment and range balls when using the facilities at Cato 
Ridge Country Club.
9. Experience in Setting Up Similar Projects in the Past 10 Years 
LBGF is the only organisation in the bidding process that has the necessary expertise and 
commitment to creating an efficient and cost effective model, that will ensure the development of 
golfers from “Grass Roots” and “First Touch” level, through to elite /professional level. 
LBGF believes it is the only “genuine” grass roots golf development program in South Africa and has 
proven success in reaching out to over 1600 (one thousand six hundred) children in just over 1 
(one) year. In addition, LBGF does not believe any other golf development organisation or bidders 
are prepared to initiate this project at grass root level in the disadvantaged areas of the Cato Ridge 
area which entails vast travelling and possible language barriers. 
LBGF has vast experience and is currently operating in all these areas, with great success. LBGF has 
set up and currently manages 8 (eight) golf development projects in KwaZulu-Natal, namely; 
t 
LBGF Howick GC Project 
LBGF Midlands GC Project 
LBGF Sobantu Project 
LBGF Edendale Project 
LBGF LIV Village Project 
LBGF Imbali Project 
LBGF Nogqaza Project 
LBGF Mthethosmusha Project 
LBGF is also launching a further 3 Projects in September 2014 which will ensure that over 2500 
(two thousand five hundred) disadvantaged children are enrolled in the program; 
LBGF Gowrie Project 
LBGF Mooi River Project 
LBGF Chatsworth Project 
The LBGF Howick GC Project is the pilot and first project under the LBGF Portfolio. Launched 
on 18 July 2013 after LBGF’s Founder, Mr Lee Bromley and his friend, Mr Mlondi 
Mlotshwa invited children from the Shiyabazali Informal Settlement to attend free golf lessons 
at Howick Golf Club. Please see attached newspaper article (Appendix 1). 
The children of the LBGF Howick GC Project had never held a golf club before attending the 
first session. There was also the language barrier to contend with. It was therefore, vital to 
create a coaching model for beginner golfers which was easily translated into isiZulu. 
The “Steps” coaching model was created and as soon as the children mastered the 10 (ten)
The children of the LBGF Howick GC Project had never held a golf club before attending the 
first session. There was also the language barrier to contend with. It was therefore, vital to 
create a coaching model for beginner golfers which was easily translated into isiZulu. 
The “Steps” coaching model was created and as soon as the children mastered the 10 (ten) 
step process, the fundamentals were instilled and hitting a golf ball became a very easy task. 
In a very short period of time, within the very first session, all the children were able to 
consistently strike the golf ball. This, combined with enjoyable extra-curricular games made 
the introductory experience, to golf, a memorable and enjoyable for all the participating 
children. 
The Howick GC Project soon became the highlight of the children’s week and at the request of 
the children, coaching sessions were increased from 2 (two) hours on a Sunday to 3 (three) 
hours on a Sunday and 2 (two) hours on a Tuesday. 
LBGF Trustees, Mlondi Mlotshwa and Lee Bromley soon realised that the children were learning 
more than just golf. The children were learning valuable character building qualities and important 
life skills. It was decided to combine life skills with the intended golf skills. The LBGF coaching 
model was created and implemented. 
In less than 2 (two) months, the children of the LBGF Howick Project, became very proficient 
in the steps (fundamentals), with the majority of the t 
children showing very good golf skills. 
The LBGF Midlands GC Project was launched on Saturday, 5 October 2013 after Midlands Golf 
Club approached LBGF to set up and implement a replica of the LBGF Howick GC Project at 
Eddels Driving Range, in Pietermaritzburg. The implementation process was smooth and 
efficient, due to the tried and tested model created at LBGF Howick GC Project, proving that 
the LBGF model can be successfully implemented throughout KwaZulu-Natal and beyond. 
LBGF’s expertise and experience in creating a suitable coaching model and successfully 
launching a second project created a influx of interest in the program. Radio stations, 
newspapers and golf governing bodies requested interviews and meetings to find out more 
information on LBGF. 
Cato Ridge Country Club will benefit greatly from being part of the LBGF and, in turn, LBGF is 
certainly the best suited organisation to initiate and launch the LBGF Cato Ridge Project, in 
partnership with Assmang. This partnership will not only ensure the project is successful 
in achieving its objectives, but it will also provide the opportunity for future projects, 
corporate alliance developments and instrumental in changing the lives of disadvantaged 
children. 
The synergy between Assmang’s development objectives and LBGF’s coaching model, and the 
implementation of LBGF’s coaching model throughout KwaZulu-Natal, provides the perfect 
platform to create a unique and successful breeding ground for future generations.

t 
10. Methodology Used 
The LBGF Cato Ridge Project will be launched as a LBGF Project in partnership with the Assmang. As 
such, the methodology used will be the same as any project launched under the LBGF Banner. The 
LBGF LTAD coaching model will be implemented from the first session and progress will be made, 
monitored and evaluated, as it would for any LBGF Project. 
The Active Start and FUNdamentals phases are designed to build physical and movement skill 
development and general foundation, leading to typical initiation of golf specific entry 
programs. The next three phases (Learn to Play, Train to Play and Learn to Compete), focus on 
the sport specific aspects of golf and initiate the importance of competition play. The Train to 
Compete phase focuses on the high performance expectations, attention to detail and 
comprehensive evaluation / review process. The following phases (Train to Excel and Excel) 
focus on the process of ascent to the highest level of competitive play.
LBGF will utilise its comprehensive and meticulous coaching model to ensure all enrolled 
students are given the best possible opportunity to excel in golf and in life. It will focus on getting 
as many children into the program as possible, using the current school infrastructure and 
providing a “fun” introduction to golf, in the children’s environment. 
A state of the art, High Performance Golf Centre for LBGF will be a medium to long term goal and 
will form part of LBGF’s “Corporate Alignment Process.” LBGF’s coaching plan is simple, but highly 
productive and certainly cost effective. 
11. LBGF Project and Marketing Plan 
a. Organisation Summary 
LBGF is a non-profit, youth development program serving children from the age of 3 years old, in 
the KwaZulu-Natal Province of South Africa. The focus of the program is to promote healthy 
development in children, by providing them with the opportunity to build character and learn 
important life skills through golf. LBGF has successfully implemented the coaching model in 8 
(eight) projects. 
b. Marketing Strategy 
LBGF strives to be the premier “Grass Roots” initiative South Africa. The marketing strategy serves to successfully t 
and “First Touch” program for children in 
communicate the unique value LBGF 
offers children and corporate partners. This strategy reflects the focus of the benefits to, not only 
the children, but the communities in which these children live. The marketing strategy will continue 
to identify the needs of the market and communicate with this audience in the most effective and 
positive manner. 
Continuous efforts will be made to understand how LBGF can maintain the quality and integrity of 
our program within the financial resources provided by the community of donors and supporters. 
The LBGF “Brand” will become globally synonymous with youth development and enriching the 
lives of future generations. The growth strategy is based on continued attention to the quality of 
the experiences and opportunities for the children, in conjunction with identifying opportunities to 
expand the participation of programs through KwaZulu-Natal and beyond. 
The objective is to enrich the lives of as many disadvantaged children as possible in a positive and 
supportive manner. A positive, constructive and meaningful manner is the sought-after result of the 
LBGF experience. This experience will assist children to better understand the necessary skills that 
life demands and empower them to realise the choices and attached commitment, available to 
them. 
c. Marketing Objectives 
LBGF marketing objectives serve common purposes; 
Enrich the lives of 2500 (two thousand five hundred) children in KwaZulu-Natal by 30 September 
2014 and enable their parent/guardian to appreciate the value of the LBGF experience for their 
child.
Create awareness for LBGF on a national and international platform, allowing corporate partners 
to enjoy numerous and unique benefits for their corporate social investment. 
Fund raising efforts to acquire the financial resources to meet the objectives and ensure 
expansion of the projects reach. 
Create strategic alliances within Government to provide the appropriate platform to ensure 
LBGF becomes the premier and preferred youth development organisation. 
Promote the coach training accreditation program and attract individuals to become coaches, 
mentors and assistants at one of the LBGF projects. 
Education of all sectors of the community and promote LBGF’s strategy pyramid. 
Excel in 
sports and life 
A broad variety of experiences 
to self-develop, build character 
and learn important life-skills 
t 
A wholesome, positive, safe and value-oriented 
atmosphere where children learn LBGF core 
values 
Equal opportunity to participate in the LBGF program, regardless 
of skill level 
d. Awareness Campaign 
LBGF has already embarked on an extensive, strategic awareness campaign through social media 
and promotion of all LBGF Projects. Video presentations of coaching sessions and regular 
interactive online presence is at the forefront of the campaign. LBGF has also conducted radio 
interviews and has featured in prominent newspapers. 
LBGF’s social media and online presences, currently includes;

t 
e. Marketing and Fund-Raising Plan 
The LBGF Marketing and Fund-Raising Plan includes fundamental elements that will ensure LBGF is 
constantly planning, sourcing required funding and creating awareness. 
These elements include; 
Creating and constantly networking, allowing LBGF to keep informed about what is going on 
within the corporate social investment sector and developing connections. 
Ultimately, LBGF will form a partnership with a consultant or organisation who will take on 
scouting and tracking opportunities that may be available to LBGF. 
Create associations and partnerships with other like-minded non-profit organisations. 
Ensuring LBGF is appropriately positioned to secure, or at least apply for funding and assistance. 
Build relationships with Local, Provincial and National Government. 
Diversifying funding to ensure LBGF is not completely dependent on one form of support. 
Stick to the mission with consistency and create a local base of support. 
Develop a plan for financial sustainability which is intricately linked with the idea of 
institutionalising LBGF and its program as a whole. 
12. Management Structure 
LBGF is administered and co-ordinated from the Head Office by founding trustee, Mr Lee Bromley 
with the support of a small dedicated team. Each project will be responsible for the 
implementation and management of the LBGF operations model and must meet clearly defined 
time-based targets. 
a. Head Office 
The Board of Trustees is currently made up of 8 (eight) Trustees: 
Mr Lee John Bromley 
Mr Morgan Nzuza 
Mr Bigboy Hlongwane 
Mr Steven Sibetha 
Mr Guy Smith 
Mr Iain Ewing 
Mrs Lee-Anne Bromley 
Mr Mlondi Mlotshwa 
Upon securing a “Presenting / Title Corporate Partner”, the corporate involved will be invited to 
have a representative on the Board of Directors. Furthermore, a Government Representative will be 
invited to also sit on the Board of Directors, ensuring all concerned parties interests are 
represented and the appropriate governance of LBGF. In order to create and maintain transparency 
and legitimacy in the operations of LBGF, various consultants / affiliates will be appointed to take 
care of important aspects of the foundation.
b. Project Management 
While all the projects will be co-ordinated from Head Office, each project will 
implement the LBGF coaching curriculum independently, according to the progress of 
the children, but with time-based targets. Each project will have the following minimum 
structure; 
Head Coach 
Apprentice Volunteers 
t 
Assistant 
Coach 
Mentor / 
Community 
Leader 
The Head Coach of each project is responsible for the operations of the project and will be required 
to report weekly to Head Office. The Head Coach will be supported by a Mentor and Assistant 
Coach, who in turn will be responsible for training an apprentice, who is either a volunteer or an 
aspiring coach. 
The Head Coach will be accredited as a Level 3 LBGF Coach, being an individual who has completed 
the first 3 levels of LBGF coaching curriculum. 
The Mentor will be accredited to Level 1 LBGF coaching and will have the added responsibility of 
the welfare of the children both at home and at school. The mentor will have to submit individual 
reports for each child in the project on a monthly basis. 
The assistant coach will be an accredited Level 1 LBGF coach and will assist the Head Coach with 
sessions and the LBGF coaching curriculum. The assistant coach will also act as a translator for 
effective communication between the Head Coach and the children. 
c. Coach and Mentor Development 
All project employees will be required to complete the LBGF Coaching and Mentoring Accreditation 
Process. Each coaching level is based on the progressive levels that children will reach as they 
benefit from the LBGF experience. Each level is more advanced and requires coaches to evolve with 
the children in their project. The curriculum in each level, not only covers the golf coaching aspect, 
but also requires the coach to be just as competent in the life aspect, including the emotional and 
mental stage a child may be experiencing.
LBGF expects the coaches to consistently deliver LBGF’s coaching philosophy and, as the children 
are expected to grasp the opportunity to be the best they can be, LBGF expects coaches to also 
want to progress through all the levels of coaching accreditation to become the best coach they 
can be. From the volunteer or apprentice stage, an individual should share the vision of LBGF and 
want to progress through all the levels and want to manage their own project. Thereafter, the 
individual is expected to want to progress with the children in their project and become an Elite 
Coach to take the children to the highest possible level of golf and life skills growth. 
d. Expansion Plan 
LBGF’s vision has no boundaries and plans to launch as many projects as resources will allow. The 
current expansion is based on the ability to recruit and accredit as many coaches, mentors and 
assistants, as possible, in the shortest period of time. This will provide LBGF with a workable 
implementation and expansion model.

“Active Start” level. 
Potential coaches will be given practical training before completing accreditation exams. LBGF plans 
to expand throughout KwaZulu-Natal with the launch of twenty five new projects in the first two 
years of operation, ending 31 August 2015.
t 
13. Monitoring and Evaluation Plan 
LBGF’s monitoring and evaluation plan will enable the organisation to learn about its activities and 
results, as well as, support internal planning and development. Monitoring and evaluation is 
extremely important in the accountability of LBGF to its stakeholders, partners and corporate social 
investors. 
The four stages of monitoring and evaluation – planning, monitoring, evaluation, using the 
findings – are represented as a continuous cycle. These stages will assist LBGF to: 
Specify program objectives in measurable terms 
Identify key indicators of success 
Outline data collection and analysis activities 
Develop a timeline to monitor the success of the program on an ongoing basis. 
Planning 
LBGF will continue to find and improve upon more efficient means of launching projects to ensure 
that the maximum number of disadvantaged children are given the opportunity to enrol in a 
project close to them. Planning will always be an important tool in developing each LBGF Project in 
terms of equipment, coaching programs, community and governmental involvement, to ensure 
that the highest level of professionalism, efficiency, proficiency, mentorship and growth is achieved 
at all times. 
Monitoring 
Each LBGF project is required to submit standardised monthly reports directly to Founder, Lee 
Bromley. The use of email and internet connectivity will ensure this process is expedited in a timely 
and efficient manner. The continuous monitoring of the children’s progress at each project and in 
comparison to all other projects will ensure that complete project model is as efficient and 
effective as it can be. From a financial standpoint, LBGF will meticulously monitor each project’s 
financials and find more effective financial means of achieving objectives. 
Evaluation 
LBGF management have a mandate to continuously improve the service offering to the children, 
stakeholders, government, corporate social investors and the team at LBGF. It is vital that LBGF 
continues to evolve with the latest management, financial, training, sports science, long term 
athlete development trends to ensure constant improvement in productivity. The evaluation of 
reports and statistics from each project will play a vital role in the process. 
Use the Findings 
The Monitoring and Evaluation of the monthly data received from each project will be used to 
enhance the program as a whole. Furthermore, individual needs for each project may vary in 
certain aspects of the program, which can be implemented from the findings.
14. Corporate Development Process 
LBGF is currently undergoing a corporate development process which will see it align with partners 
who are looking to enjoy numerous benefits for their corporate social investment while assisting 
LBGF in its quest. 
LBGF has created a unique offering to the corporate sector and will continue to source and 
customise mutually beneficial partnerships within this sector, in its quest to fulfil its goals and 
objectives. 
Corporate Partners are provided excellent marketing and creative leverage. It is also an exciting 
opportunity to align their organisation with a genuine “grass roots” youth development program 
that enriches the lives of the next generation. 
15. Financial Stability 
LBGF has identified fundamental components for its financial stability; 
Financial and Strategic Planning 
Although LBGF is in the similar situation to most non-profit organisations, whereby it needs to raise 
“as much as possible, as soon as possible”, it also understands the minimum it must raise to 
achieve its proposed objectives, related to fulfilling its respective missions and covering 
administrative costs. 
As LBGF grows, it will maintain focus on long range t 
objectives while dealing with day to day 
management issues. Effective planning is the prerequisite for accessing available local and 
international funds. LBGF focuses on the carefully prepared budget rather than implementing a 
projected financial plan for the first year. A financial plan operates in the basis of scenarios, ranging 
from the minimum feasible to the ideal and basically, consists of projected expenditures, with the 
organisation’s potential to generate the income to cover such expenditure. Therefore, LBGF will 
focus on the financial requirements for each project individually on a minimum basis, based on the 
pilot project. Funding for each project will be sourced from within the project’s relevant, local 
corporate community initially, before exploring provincially and nationally. 
Income Diversification 
At least 60% (sixty percent) of LBGF’s overall budget must come from at least five different sources, 
to ensure that a large portion of the budget does not depend on one partner. In a scenario such as 
this, LBGF becomes seriously jeopardised if there are any changes in the partner’s decision and it 
can induce a major crisis. 
Sound Administration and Finance 
The management of resources is as essential to achieving financial sustainability, as knowing how 
to generate income. LBGF has efficient procedures for administration and finances, which are 
governed by a series of institutional policies, to ensure transparency in fiscal management. 
Moreover, these procedures allow LBGF to anticipate the organisations financial standing and, 
ultimately, make appropriate decisions in a timely manner. Accounting and administrative 
procedures fit into LBGF’s needs. Regardless of their scope and structure, these procedures record 
LBGF’s transactions, ensuring the ability to visualise the organisation a whole.
Own Income Generation 
LBGF will diversify its sources of revenue through the generation of its own income. This 
unrestricted income will be generated through innovative means, such as; 
Contributions to a trust or endowment fund – The objective of the trust fund is to benefit from 
the interest generated by the capital. The capital remains untouched and its value maintained or 
increased over time. 
Fundraising for institution building or operations – Donations from individuals, corporates or 
agencies willing to make contributions in support of the institutional development of LBGF. Theses 
donations may be given in the following ways; 
Helping LBGF to increase its income generation capacity whether by hiring new staff, acquiring 
computer systems or the initial investment necessary to implement an income-generation 
project, etc. 
Increase equity, whether by building infrastructure or building up an endowment fund. 
Contributing unrestricted funds for a specific time period. Such funds are usually provided to an 
organisation when it starts up operations to allow it to achieve a degree of financial stability 
until such time as its project volume increases. 
Income Generation through Public Contribution – Solicit public support for LBGF. There are many 
ways to approach the public, including; 
Offer membership in the Lee Bromley Golf Academy Organise golf events and other events on which t 
to support the LBGF. 
the public attend and/or participate. 
Solicit donations in public campaigns. 
Solicit corporate contributions in exchange for tax deductions, image, group membership of the 
LBGA or a combination of these. 
Income Generation through the Sale of Goods and / or Services - This income generating 
strategy exists in many forms. It can be as simple as the sale of promotional products, or as 
complex as offering professional consulting services in a particular field. Online services is another 
method of soliciting these products and services. 
Income Generation through Financial Management – LBGF will implement this income-generation 
technique by the appropriate, strategic management of LBGF’s assets, in order to maximise their 
financial potential. For instance, property that is not being used can be rented, bank accounts can 
be transferred to interest-bearing accounts until the funds are needed, or unused assets which 
retain some market value can be sold. 
Income Generation through Corporate Alliances – Cause-related marketing alliances 
with corporates. Commercial activities where LBGF partner with corporations to market an image, 
product, or service with the purpose of obtaining a mutual benefit. The corporate achieves a good 
public image, sells more products or services and LBGF raises funds to carry out its mission. Funds 
received could be a percentage of sales and / or a specific amount.

  • 4. 2. LBGF Executive Summary The Lee Bromley Golf Foundation is a “Grass Roots” initiative and “First Touch” program that introduces golf to disadvantaged children from deprived areas, with the purpose of providing them with the tools, knowledge and core values to excel in life. LBGF is a youth development organisation that incorporates the Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) model with age appropriate skills activities to assist in the physical, emotional and social development stages that all individuals experience. LBGF teaches 11 core values; Integrity Self-Respect Courtesy Sportsmanship Confidence Perseverance Patience Social Integration Responsibility Judgement Punctuality More than a golf development centre, LBGF develops children physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially, providing a positive impact on children, their families and their communities through the great game of golf. It provides the perfect framework t for optimal growth, development and maturation through golf. Numerous studies document the direct value of children participating in sports. These studies demonstrate that involvement in development programs, such as the programs to be run by LBGF, results in reducing the potential to become involved in drugs, sex, crime and gang-related behaviors. Furthermore, it gives children the grounding to build character and learn important life skills. The economic, social and personal value of investing in the lives of children produces a positive impact on the communities and country. LBGF is a Non-Profit Trust with 8 (eight) appointed Trustees; Mr Lee Bromley Mr Morgan Nzuza Mr Bigboy Hlongwane Mr Steven Sibetha Mrs Lee-Anne Mr Iain Ewing Mr Guy Smith Bromley Mr Mlondi Mlotshwa The Trust’s main objective is to enrich the lives of disadvantaged children through golf. The Trust will be involved in activities that promote sport, specifically golf, for all impoverished, previously and currently disadvantaged youth in South Africa. Through these activities, it is envisaged that the children with whom the Trust will work, will gain new skills with which to better themselves through learning important life and social skills, and empowering themselves with the skills to grow up to be successful citizens and leaders in their communities.
  • 5. t 3. LBGF Mission Statement 4.

  • 6. Expand into new areas within KwaZulu-Natal to provide program access to all disadvantaged children in the province, through the implementation of the LBGF Strategic Plan. Secure the support of Local, Provincial and National Government, Provincial, National and International Golf Bodies. Continue to develop the corporate alliance base and fundraising efforts to ensure financial stability and sustainability of the program. Ensure the LBGF Coaching Philosophy and Methodology is consistently administered and delivered in all LBGF Projects. t 5. Keys to Success Implementation of a sound Coaching Accreditation Program. Procurement of state of the art coaching and training equipment, technology and applications. Utilise the schools system to enrol children into LBGF and compliment current schools physical education and sports curriculums. Creation of partnerships with reputable tertiary education institutions and the set up of scholarships for LBGF children with elite skills level in academics and/or sport.
  • 7. t 6. Situation Analysis The need for youth golf programs is validated and magnified by information that attributes long-term value to children in these programs. Numerous studies document the direct value of children participating in sports. These studies demonstrate that involvement in development programs, such as LBGF, results in reducing the potential to become involved in drugs, sex, crime and gang-related behaviours. Furthermore, it gives children the grounding to build character and learn important life skills. The economic, social and personal value of investing in the lives of children produces a positive impact on the communities and country. LBGF provides opportunity that serves as a personal reference for children throughout their lives. LBGF wants to empower the children to grow up to be successful citizens and leaders in their community. Offering hope and opportunity for a better future is what drives us. 7. Cato Ridge Country Club – LBGF Cato Ridge Project Overview and Responsibilities LBGF will set up and launch a project in partnership with Assmang at the Cato Ridge Country Club, situated in Cato Ridge, Ethekwini, South Africa. Mr Tim Chisale, a member of Cato Ridge Country Club will head up the project as its Head Coach and will be responsible for the day to day operations of the project. The project will be known as LBGF Cato Ridge Project and will enrich the lives of disadvantaged children in the Cato Ridge area. Overview Assmang, the owner of the Cato Ridge Country Club asset will partner LBGF in the LBGF Cato Ridge Project and project operations will commence, as of 01 September 2014. Both parties’ responsibilities are outlined under “Project Partner Responsibilities” below. LBGF has the required expertise and coaching model to fulfil Assmang’s objectives in terms of golf development at Cato Ridge Country Club. In addition, LBGF has created a unique and innovative process to implement its comprehensive program to coach and nurture beginner golfers through all the golfing stages to elite professional golfers. LBGF prescribes to the Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) Model which uses appropriate training aims at each stage of an athlete’s physical, cognitive and emotional development. Producing elite level golfers is a long term process and LBGF has developed its own, effective model, using LTAD principles and taking into consideration the life and cultural styles, that makes South Africa, unique unto its own.

LBGF is best suited for the project of setting up the LBGF Cato Ridge Project due to its superiority over other golf development organisations in South Africa in all aspects of youth development, including, but not limited to; LBGF has reached out to over 1600 (one thousand six hundred children) in just over 1 (one) year of operations. LBGF has a coaching model that is based on LTAD principles and yet simple enough for children to understand and quickly grasp the fundamentals of golf. LBGF teaches children how to build character and learn important life skills through golf. LBGF’s sound financial and operational stability plan will ensure that it achieves sustainability in a relatively short time. LBGF is not only prepared to develop from Grass Roots level, it is also prepared to teach in the Grass Roots environment – Taking golf to the children, therefore creating a captive audience and not expecting the children to incur additional costs to get to coaching sessions. LBGF’s program introduces children to golf and assists them through all the different levels and stages of their golf career, right through to professional / elite level. PROJECT RESPONSIBILITIES Assmang, as a partner in the LBGF Cato Ridge Project, will allow LBGF the use of the Cato Ridge Country Club facilities without charge. Assmang will also allow LBGF to publicise the project and its partnership with Assmang, for marketing and communicative t purposes. These are the only responsibilities of Assmang in the LBGF Cato Ridge Project. Should Assmang wish to be involved in any marketing, events, corporate alignment process, financial or sponsorship assistance of equipment, uniforms, events, prizes and/or coaching fees, it will be entirely at Assmang’s discretion and is certainly not a pre-requisite to their involvement in the partnership with LBGF. LBGF will be responsible for the entire operation of the LBGF Cato Ridge Project and the costs incurred in doing so. All children participating in the coaching sessions and the LBGF program will be required to complete a registration form and indemnity. LBGF is responsible for the coaching fees and costs associated with the implementation and administration of the program and will be required to adhere to the rules of Cato Ridge Country Club and as laid down by Assmang. LBGF will be allowed to use their own equipment and range balls when using the facilities at Cato Ridge Country Club.
  • 10. 9. Experience in Setting Up Similar Projects in the Past 10 Years LBGF is the only organisation in the bidding process that has the necessary expertise and commitment to creating an efficient and cost effective model, that will ensure the development of golfers from “Grass Roots” and “First Touch” level, through to elite /professional level. LBGF believes it is the only “genuine” grass roots golf development program in South Africa and has proven success in reaching out to over 1600 (one thousand six hundred) children in just over 1 (one) year. In addition, LBGF does not believe any other golf development organisation or bidders are prepared to initiate this project at grass root level in the disadvantaged areas of the Cato Ridge area which entails vast travelling and possible language barriers. LBGF has vast experience and is currently operating in all these areas, with great success. LBGF has set up and currently manages 8 (eight) golf development projects in KwaZulu-Natal, namely; t LBGF Howick GC Project LBGF Midlands GC Project LBGF Sobantu Project LBGF Edendale Project LBGF LIV Village Project LBGF Imbali Project LBGF Nogqaza Project LBGF Mthethosmusha Project LBGF is also launching a further 3 Projects in September 2014 which will ensure that over 2500 (two thousand five hundred) disadvantaged children are enrolled in the program; LBGF Gowrie Project LBGF Mooi River Project LBGF Chatsworth Project The LBGF Howick GC Project is the pilot and first project under the LBGF Portfolio. Launched on 18 July 2013 after LBGF’s Founder, Mr Lee Bromley and his friend, Mr Mlondi Mlotshwa invited children from the Shiyabazali Informal Settlement to attend free golf lessons at Howick Golf Club. Please see attached newspaper article (Appendix 1). The children of the LBGF Howick GC Project had never held a golf club before attending the first session. There was also the language barrier to contend with. It was therefore, vital to create a coaching model for beginner golfers which was easily translated into isiZulu.

  • 11. The children of the LBGF Howick GC Project had never held a golf club before attending the first session. There was also the language barrier to contend with. It was therefore, vital to create a coaching model for beginner golfers which was easily translated into isiZulu. The “Steps” coaching model was created and as soon as the children mastered the 10 (ten) step process, the fundamentals were instilled and hitting a golf ball became a very easy task. In a very short period of time, within the very first session, all the children were able to consistently strike the golf ball. This, combined with enjoyable extra-curricular games made the introductory experience, to golf, a memorable and enjoyable for all the participating children. The Howick GC Project soon became the highlight of the children’s week and at the request of the children, coaching sessions were increased from 2 (two) hours on a Sunday to 3 (three) hours on a Sunday and 2 (two) hours on a Tuesday. LBGF Trustees, Mlondi Mlotshwa and Lee Bromley soon realised that the children were learning more than just golf. The children were learning valuable character building qualities and important life skills. It was decided to combine life skills with the intended golf skills. The LBGF coaching model was created and implemented. In less than 2 (two) months, the children of the LBGF Howick Project, became very proficient in the steps (fundamentals), with the majority of the t children showing very good golf skills. The LBGF Midlands GC Project was launched on Saturday, 5 October 2013 after Midlands Golf Club approached LBGF to set up and implement a replica of the LBGF Howick GC Project at Eddels Driving Range, in Pietermaritzburg. The implementation process was smooth and efficient, due to the tried and tested model created at LBGF Howick GC Project, proving that the LBGF model can be successfully implemented throughout KwaZulu-Natal and beyond. LBGF’s expertise and experience in creating a suitable coaching model and successfully launching a second project created a influx of interest in the program. Radio stations, newspapers and golf governing bodies requested interviews and meetings to find out more information on LBGF. Cato Ridge Country Club will benefit greatly from being part of the LBGF and, in turn, LBGF is certainly the best suited organisation to initiate and launch the LBGF Cato Ridge Project, in partnership with Assmang. This partnership will not only ensure the project is successful in achieving its objectives, but it will also provide the opportunity for future projects, corporate alliance developments and instrumental in changing the lives of disadvantaged children. The synergy between Assmang’s development objectives and LBGF’s coaching model, and the implementation of LBGF’s coaching model throughout KwaZulu-Natal, provides the perfect platform to create a unique and successful breeding ground for future generations.

Methodology Used The LBGF Cato Ridge Project will be launched as a LBGF Project in partnership with the Assmang. As such, the methodology used will be the same as any project launched under the LBGF Banner. The LBGF LTAD coaching model will be implemented from the first session and progress will be made, monitored and evaluated, as it would for any LBGF Project. The Active Start and FUNdamentals phases are designed to build physical and movement skill development and general foundation, leading to typical initiation of golf specific entry programs. The next three phases (Learn to Play, Train to Play and Learn to Compete), focus on the sport specific aspects of golf and initiate the importance of competition play. The Train to Compete phase focuses on the high performance expectations, attention to detail and comprehensive evaluation / review process. The following phases (Train to Excel and Excel) focus on the process of ascent to the highest level of competitive play.
  • 14. LBGF will utilise its comprehensive and meticulous coaching model to ensure all enrolled students are given the best possible opportunity to excel in golf and in life. It will focus on getting as many children into the program as possible, using the current school infrastructure and providing a “fun” introduction to golf, in the children’s environment. A state of the art, High Performance Golf Centre for LBGF will be a medium to long term goal and will form part of LBGF’s “Corporate Alignment Process.” LBGF’s coaching plan is simple, but highly productive and certainly cost effective. 11. LBGF Project and Marketing Plan a. Organisation Summary LBGF is a non-profit, youth development program serving children from the age of 3 years old, in the KwaZulu-Natal Province of South Africa. The focus of the program is to promote healthy development in children, by providing them with the opportunity to build character and learn important life skills through golf. LBGF has successfully implemented the coaching model in 8 (eight) projects. b. Marketing Strategy LBGF strives to be the premier “Grass Roots” initiative South Africa. The marketing strategy serves to successfully t and “First Touch” program for children in communicate the unique value LBGF offers children and corporate partners. This strategy reflects the focus of the benefits to, not only the children, but the communities in which these children live. The marketing strategy will continue to identify the needs of the market and communicate with this audience in the most effective and positive manner. Continuous efforts will be made to understand how LBGF can maintain the quality and integrity of our program within the financial resources provided by the community of donors and supporters. The LBGF “Brand” will become globally synonymous with youth development and enriching the lives of future generations. The growth strategy is based on continued attention to the quality of the experiences and opportunities for the children, in conjunction with identifying opportunities to expand the participation of programs through KwaZulu-Natal and beyond. The objective is to enrich the lives of as many disadvantaged children as possible in a positive and supportive manner. A positive, constructive and meaningful manner is the sought-after result of the LBGF experience. This experience will assist children to better understand the necessary skills that life demands and empower them to realise the choices and attached commitment, available to them. c. Marketing Objectives LBGF marketing objectives serve common purposes; Enrich the lives of 2500 (two thousand five hundred) children in KwaZulu-Natal by 30 September 2014 and enable their parent/guardian to appreciate the value of the LBGF experience for their child.
  • 15. Create awareness for LBGF on a national and international platform, allowing corporate partners to enjoy numerous and unique benefits for their corporate social investment. Fund raising efforts to acquire the financial resources to meet the objectives and ensure expansion of the projects reach.

  • 16. t e. Marketing and Fund-Raising Plan The LBGF Marketing and Fund-Raising Plan includes fundamental elements that will ensure LBGF is constantly planning, sourcing required funding and creating awareness. These elements include; Creating and constantly networking, allowing LBGF to keep informed about what is going on within the corporate social investment sector and developing connections. Ultimately, LBGF will form a partnership with a consultant or organisation who will take on scouting and tracking opportunities that may be available to LBGF. Create associations and partnerships with other like-minded non-profit organisations. Ensuring LBGF is appropriately positioned to secure, or at least apply for funding and assistance. Build relationships with Local, Provincial and National Government. Diversifying funding to ensure LBGF is not completely dependent on one form of support. Stick to the mission with consistency and create a local base of support. Develop a plan for financial sustainability which is intricately linked with the idea of institutionalising LBGF and its program as a whole. 12. Management Structure LBGF is administered and co-ordinated from the Head Office by founding trustee, Mr Lee Bromley with the support of a small dedicated team. Each project will be responsible for the implementation and management of the LBGF operations model and must meet clearly defined time-based targets. a. Head Office The Board of Trustees is currently made up of 8 (eight) Trustees: Mr Lee John Bromley Mr Morgan Nzuza Mr Bigboy Hlongwane Mr Steven Sibetha Mr Guy Smith Mr Iain Ewing Mrs Lee-Anne Bromley Mr Mlondi Mlotshwa Upon securing a “Presenting / Title Corporate Partner”, the corporate involved will be invited to have a representative on the Board of Directors. Furthermore, a Government Representative will be invited to also sit on the Board of Directors, ensuring all concerned parties interests are represented and the appropriate governance of LBGF. In order to create and maintain transparency and legitimacy in the operations of LBGF, various consultants / affiliates will be appointed to take care of important aspects of the foundation.
  • 17. b. Project Management While all the projects will be co-ordinated from Head Office, each project will implement the LBGF coaching curriculum independently, according to the progress of the children, but with time-based targets. Each project will have the following minimum structure; Head Coach Apprentice Volunteers t Assistant Coach Mentor / Community Leader The Head Coach of each project is responsible for the operations of the project and will be required to report weekly to Head Office. The Head Coach will be supported by a Mentor and Assistant Coach, who in turn will be responsible for training an apprentice, who is either a volunteer or an aspiring coach. The Head Coach will be accredited as a Level 3 LBGF Coach, being an individual who has completed the first 3 levels of LBGF coaching curriculum. The Mentor will be accredited to Level 1 LBGF coaching and will have the added responsibility of the welfare of the children both at home and at school. The mentor will have to submit individual reports for each child in the project on a monthly basis. The assistant coach will be an accredited Level 1 LBGF coach and will assist the Head Coach with sessions and the LBGF coaching curriculum. The assistant coach will also act as a translator for effective communication between the Head Coach and the children. c. Coach and Mentor Development All project employees will be required to complete the LBGF Coaching and Mentoring Accreditation Process. Each coaching level is based on the progressive levels that children will reach as they benefit from the LBGF experience. Each level is more advanced and requires coaches to evolve with the children in their project. The curriculum in each level, not only covers the golf coaching aspect, but also requires the coach to be just as competent in the life aspect, including the emotional and mental stage a child may be experiencing.
  • 18. LBGF expects the coaches to consistently deliver LBGF’s coaching philosophy and, as the children are expected to grasp the opportunity to be the best they can be, LBGF expects coaches to also want to progress through all the levels of coaching accreditation to become the best coach they can be. From the volunteer or apprentice stage, an individual should share the vision of LBGF and want to progress through all the levels and want to manage their own project. Thereafter, the individual is expected to want to progress with the children in their project and become an Elite Coach to take the children to the highest possible level of golf and life skills growth. d. Expansion Plan LBGF’s vision has no boundaries and plans to launch as many projects as resources will allow. The current expansion is based on the ability to recruit and accredit as many coaches, mentors and assistants, as possible, in the shortest period of time. This will provide LBGF with a workable implementation and expansion model. LBGF Coaching Accreditation t LBGF PROJECT Head Coach (Level3) Assistant Coach (Level1) Mentor (Level 1) Each LBGF Project will be launched under the guidance and direct instruction of Founder, Mr Lee Bromley. Initially, a project will conduct sessions once a week with all children being coached in the “Active Start” level. Potential coaches will be given practical training before completing accreditation exams. LBGF plans to expand throughout KwaZulu-Natal with the launch of twenty five new projects in the first two years of operation, ending 31 August 2015.
  • 19. t 13. Monitoring and Evaluation Plan LBGF’s monitoring and evaluation plan will enable the organisation to learn about its activities and results, as well as, support internal planning and development. Monitoring and evaluation is extremely important in the accountability of LBGF to its stakeholders, partners and corporate social investors. The four stages of monitoring and evaluation – planning, monitoring, evaluation, using the findings – are represented as a continuous cycle. These stages will assist LBGF to: Specify program objectives in measurable terms Identify key indicators of success Outline data collection and analysis activities Develop a timeline to monitor the success of the program on an ongoing basis. Planning LBGF will continue to find and improve upon more efficient means of launching projects to ensure that the maximum number of disadvantaged children are given the opportunity to enrol in a project close to them. Planning will always be an important tool in developing each LBGF Project in terms of equipment, coaching programs, community and governmental involvement, to ensure that the highest level of professionalism, efficiency, proficiency, mentorship and growth is achieved at all times. Monitoring Each LBGF project is required to submit standardised monthly reports directly to Founder, Lee Bromley. The use of email and internet connectivity will ensure this process is expedited in a timely and efficient manner. The continuous monitoring of the children’s progress at each project and in comparison to all other projects will ensure that complete project model is as efficient and effective as it can be. From a financial standpoint, LBGF will meticulously monitor each project’s financials and find more effective financial means of achieving objectives. Evaluation LBGF management have a mandate to continuously improve the service offering to the children, stakeholders, government, corporate social investors and the team at LBGF. It is vital that LBGF continues to evolve with the latest management, financial, training, sports science, long term athlete development trends to ensure constant improvement in productivity. The evaluation of reports and statistics from each project will play a vital role in the process. Use the Findings The Monitoring and Evaluation of the monthly data received from each project will be used to enhance the program as a whole. Furthermore, individual needs for each project may vary in certain aspects of the program, which can be implemented from the findings.
  • 20. 14. Corporate Development Process LBGF is currently undergoing a corporate development process which will see it align with partners who are looking to enjoy numerous benefits for their corporate social investment while assisting LBGF in its quest. LBGF has created a unique offering to the corporate sector and will continue to source and customise mutually beneficial partnerships within this sector, in its quest to fulfil its goals and objectives. Corporate Partners are provided excellent marketing and creative leverage. It is also an exciting opportunity to align their organisation with a genuine “grass roots” youth development program that enriches the lives of the next generation. 15. Financial Stability LBGF has identified fundamental components for its financial stability; Financial and Strategic Planning Although LBGF is in the similar situation to most non-profit organisations, whereby it needs to raise “as much as possible, as soon as possible”, it also understands the minimum it must raise to achieve its proposed objectives, related to fulfilling its respective missions and covering administrative costs. As LBGF grows, it will maintain focus on long range t objectives while dealing with day to day management issues. Effective planning is the prerequisite for accessing available local and international funds. LBGF focuses on the carefully prepared budget rather than implementing a projected financial plan for the first year. A financial plan operates in the basis of scenarios, ranging from the minimum feasible to the ideal and basically, consists of projected expenditures, with the organisation’s potential to generate the income to cover such expenditure. Therefore, LBGF will focus on the financial requirements for each project individually on a minimum basis, based on the pilot project. Funding for each project will be sourced from within the project’s relevant, local corporate community initially, before exploring provincially and nationally. Income Diversification At least 60% (sixty percent) of LBGF’s overall budget must come from at least five different sources, to ensure that a large portion of the budget does not depend on one partner. In a scenario such as this, LBGF becomes seriously jeopardised if there are any changes in the partner’s decision and it can induce a major crisis. Sound Administration and Finance The management of resources is as essential to achieving financial sustainability, as knowing how to generate income. LBGF has efficient procedures for administration and finances, which are governed by a series of institutional policies, to ensure transparency in fiscal management. Moreover, these procedures allow LBGF to anticipate the organisations financial standing and, ultimately, make appropriate decisions in a timely manner. Accounting and administrative procedures fit into LBGF’s needs. Regardless of their scope and structure, these procedures record LBGF’s transactions, ensuring the ability to visualise the organisation a whole.
  • 21. Own Income Generation LBGF will diversify its sources of revenue through the generation of its own income. This unrestricted income will be generated through innovative means, such as; Contributions to a trust or endowment fund – The objective of the trust fund is to benefit from the interest generated by the capital. The capital remains untouched and its value maintained or increased over time. Fundraising for institution building or operations – Donations from individuals, corporates or agencies willing to make contributions in support of the institutional development of LBGF. Theses donations may be given in the following ways; Helping LBGF to increase its income generation capacity whether by hiring new staff, acquiring computer systems or the initial investment necessary to implement an income-generation project, etc. Increase equity, whether by building infrastructure or building up an endowment fund. Contributing unrestricted funds for a specific time period. Such funds are usually provided to an organisation when it starts up operations to allow it to achieve a degree of financial stability until such time as its project volume increases. Income Generation through Public Contribution – Solicit public support for LBGF. There are many ways to approach the public, including; Offer membership in the Lee Bromley Golf Academy Organise golf events and other events on which t to support the LBGF. the public attend and/or participate. Solicit donations in public campaigns. Solicit corporate contributions in exchange for tax deductions, image, group membership of the LBGA or a combination of these. Income Generation through the Sale of Goods and / or Services - This income generating strategy exists in many forms. It can be as simple as the sale of promotional products, or as complex as offering professional consulting services in a particular field. Online services is another method of soliciting these products and services. Income Generation through Financial Management – LBGF will implement this income-generation technique by the appropriate, strategic management of LBGF’s assets, in order to maximise their financial potential. For instance, property that is not being used can be rented, bank accounts can be transferred to interest-bearing accounts until the funds are needed, or unused assets which retain some market value can be sold. Income Generation through Corporate Alliances – Cause-related marketing alliances with corporates. Commercial activities where LBGF partner with corporations to market an image, product, or service with the purpose of obtaining a mutual benefit. The corporate achieves a good public image, sells more products or services and LBGF raises funds to carry out its mission. Funds received could be a percentage of sales and / or a specific amount.
