Nontraditional sources of funding, I think would be to commercial venture. Organizations could sell it services to people who can pay for them. Bequest program - having people leave money to the organization in their will. Affinity marketing- a store could its customers that they will put a certain portion of their profit towards the organization.

Phoenix Homeless Agency needs funds to continue providing counseling to qualifying recipients, so they would need to come up with the best possible way to fund their efforts. They could try several fund raising strategies to do that such as Client donations, special events, and annual campaign. I think these would do best because you would think that with the economy being the way it is that donations would not come in but that is just not true. If you make it known would your cause is for and appeal to passionate people that want the same thing they will donate. Special events are another fundraising idea I think would work, especially raffles. The organization could have another organization donation something that people would want such as a gift cards, or maybe tickets to something, I say small things like this because they could have many company’s donate this and that way there are more prizes at the end which when you think about it more people will play. Annual campaign I think would be a good idea because the organization is not new so you would think that have had donors in the past that they could contact to make another donation or to have the previous donors to increase their donations.
