The responses below
will be closely scrutinized during the evaluation
process. We expect you to describe your fund
raising plans and goals.
Don't be concerned if you have little or no
experience in fund raising. We're not looking for
experts. What we are looking for is an indication
that your organization has a viable case for fund
raising and has access to persons with
satisfactory planning, communication, and
organizational skills.
* Describe
the program(s), activity(ies), cause(s) that
you are raising funds for.
(The program
itself is of minimal concern. We are more
interested in how WELL your goals are defined.
Well defined, concrete goals lead to better
results.)
Fundraising Goal:
1,000
3,000
5,000
10,000
Over 10,000
* How
do you plan to sign up your first 50 bargainBUCK$
members?
(Highly creative fund raising
ideas are great, but we're more impressed by
plans that have a good chance of succeeding. )
* What
other fund raising campaigns has your group run?
Describe the other
campaigns and the results you experienced.
(The evaluation committee does not consider
past fund raising failures to be negatives. We
learn from our mistakes.)
Also, tell us why your group has chosen to
apply for the
bargainBUCK$ program and how
you would position this campaign relative to
others you have run or are presently running.
