Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

To build a stable base of funds to allow us to predict the number of women we can serve and to be able to expand our service area.

Expand our monthly giving program " Give Hope" , to continue to engage in third party event fundraising with our community partners, to connect with corporate and community grants, to continue to engage our current donor base.

1. We have a monthly giving program already in place on our website.
2. To grow our Board of Directors adding new voices and ideas for future fundraising.
3. Add a community grant director to help us access corporate and community grants to fund our aid program.
4. Continue to engage and advise our donors through quarterly newsletters and to invest in keeping our supporters while seeking new alliances.

We have been able to increase our grants to $2000 from $500 and we have added two new board members one of which has agreed to take on the task of seeking grant funding.
