Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
To lead people to Jesus so that they may become productive members of society. Improve our present shelter to the point where we never have to turn someone away. Open a woman and children's shelter to help them be restored.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
To continue to provide and environment that is conducive to helping people move forward with their lives. To provide the necessary housing for those in our drug alcohol program and those unable to afford housing in our high cost area. To feed the hungry by providing meals and food in kind.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Increase individual donations by donor acquisition, cultivation, education and by making friends. Add a thrift store to double on present income.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
Donor list is only 300 and needs to grow to 3000 for our area. We presently are actively improving methods to increase our donor base. We try to limit our fundraising percentages and this lengthens our time needed to have the needed donors to provide for our needs.
