Fundraising Idea of the Month:
Transparency

We live in a world far less trusting and much more cynical than that of our forebears. This is a fact that must be dealt with and an excellent way to do this is to be transparent.

Let people clearly see how you raise your funds and just as clearly how you spend your funds. People now want to know how you will spend their donations and just how much of each dollar will be spent on what you are saying you are raising it for.

By being transparent in all you do as a matter of course, you will lay aside much resistance and be more acceptable to potential donors and supporters so life will be just that much easier, not easy but easier.
