Basic Tips for Fund-raising for Small NGOs in Developing Countries ( Click here to Download)

Some of the most frequently asked questions (FAQs) to forums for community-based organizations (CBOs) in developing countries, whatever the subject, are regarding
funding.

In addition, the first impulse of many such non-governmental organization (NGO) seeking funding is to request the contact information for possible funders, and once such
information is received, these NGOs often write immediately to the potential funder, stressing how desperately funds are needed. Sadly, this approach often does harm to
the NGO, rather than garnering support. Not only does it rarely attract funding, it can turn funding organizations against the NGO altogether.
With all this in mind, Jayne Cravens, a consultant based in Germany (www.coyotecommunications.com) drafted very basic tips for fund-raising for NGOs serving the developing world, as a volunteer for the Aid Workers Network (www.aidworkers.net). Several other volunteers with AWN took the draft, revised it, and posted it to AWN. However, the version you are reading now is one that has been further revised by the original author, Jayne Cravens.
