This site is designed to help anyone who has taken on the task of raising money for a charitable organization.  Whether you are a staff person responsible for the job or a volunteer who wants to understand more about the process of building a steady stream of income to meet the needs of the people your organization serves, this site should provide you with the plans, resources and fundraising ideas you need.  A good place to start might be Fundraising Basics or Fund Development Plan.

Understanding donors, how they make a decision to support an organization and what influences them is key to managing a fund development program and various fundraising activities.  Marketing methods can be used to communicate effectively.
