Fundraising (4 or more pages)
The purpose of this is to compile and explain methods and techniques of fundraising done by nonprofit organizations. You will analyze TWO organizations. ONE of them will be from the ‘largest nonprofit’ list, and ONE will be selected from different sub-sectors.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Click on Unit 1 handout Nonprofit Organizations. Scroll down to the listing of the largest nonprofits (page two)

2. Choose ONE of the largest nonprofits from that list, and include the required sections in your analysis (listed below)

3. On the same Unit 1 handout, scroll down to ‘Nonprofit sub-sectors”. There are seven sub-sectors, beginning with arts, culture and humanities.

4. Select ONE sub-sector, then identify a nonprofit organization that fits that category.

For example: you may decide to select ‘arts, culture and humanities’ because you want to focus your analysis on a nonprofit children’s theater OR you may decide on ‘environment and animals’, and your analysis will look at an international organization that specializes in rehabilitation. Include required sections in your analysis

5. For each organization, research their websites for fundraising information.

6. Include the required sections in your paper (listed below).

7. USE HEADINGS to label and organize your sections.
