ASSIGNMENT: MODULE FIVE
Testing for Readiness and Planning for Fundraising
A successful fundraising program in any organization, including churches and their schools, is based on principles that have been proven
over time through best practices and verified by research. Fundraising is an institutional effort, requiring these activities:
● management processes;
● committed leadership;
● board, church members, volunteers, and others to do the work as a team;
● investment of resources including time, financial support, and personnel;
● identifiable donors;
● a fundraising plan that is part of an organizational plan; and
● tools for fundraising such as skill in writing and use of social media.
Every fundraising effort responds to some differences in circumstances, such as popularity of cause, internal expertise, budget allocated to
the effort, size of organization, support of leadership, internal commitment to fundraising, and more. The points listed in this planning form
reflect best practices and knowledge provided by experts in the field. Any organization, including churches, schools and community service
organizations, must prioritize and intelligently allocate meager resources.
This form should be considered a starting point and you will probably not be able fill in all the areas, therefore it should be an active and on-
going part of your study, to be filled in as you learn more with each module of this course.
