Successful fundraising requires demonstrating the value
and impact of your organization. Today's investors are far more
sophisticated than a decade ago. They expect results-driven programs.
They are not interested in how many books you distribute in the
classroom, but how many students learned how to read.
American Fundraising Institute (AFI) has developed a potent fundraising
strategy in sync with today's marketplace. In this increasingly
competitive climate, it takes more than a "warm and fuzzy" feeling
to attract major funding. The AFI model centers not on soliciting
donations, but investments. Amid the myriad of outstretched hands,
only the non-profit demonstrating outcomes will rise above the
many outstretched hands of non-profits today.
The AFI model has been carefully developed. AFI tailors your
development program specific to your needs, resources, and objectives.
We pose and secure answers to the right questions:
Why invest in your organization?
What will be accomplished in measurable
terms?
How will your program positively impact my community?
What
is my return on investment?
