Resource Development 6 Month Strategic Plan

Overview

The Resource Development Strategy will unfold in three phases:

Phase 1: Fulfilling Existing Contractual Obligations

Phase 2: Preparing for New Contracts

Phase 3: Seeking New Contracts

Phase 1

By committing to fulfilling our existing obligations with foundations and reporting on how our current grants have been used, we establish a track record that will help us receive further funding, and at a larger level, in the future. The process of tracking how our existing grants have been used will lay the groundwork for a systemic approach to handling finances within the organization. The majority of these tasks will be completed during the September and October months of 2012, leaving the remainder of the year open for the completion of Phase 2 and the beginning of Phase 3.
