...Golf Fundraising Ideas For a Golf day: Below are a good few fundraising ideas for your charity golf day. Remember that you don't have to use all of them and that some might not work for your cause or golf day. But make sure you use a good few of them... Entry Fees – Try to only earn a small amount off each person for their entry fees, obviously on top of what the golf course charges (A guideline in South Africa is about R50 ($4), but that amount will vary greatly worldwide). If the entry fee is too expensive you won’t fill your playing field, which is a no go... Get people there first and then you’ll earn the big cash with all the other fundraisers during the day! Hole sponsors (Advertisers) – You will want to get a sponsor/advertiser for each of the 18 holes, as well as the practice green. Be creative about it and think of other places you can put up for advertising... Like the car park or dining hall! I would suggest seeking local advice on how much to ask for each sponsorship. The Golf Club who is hosting your golf day would be a good place to start. This figure will totally depend on where you are from and what type of people/companies will be sponsoring your day. I'd highly recommend you watch this video on "Getting more from corporate sponsorships for fundraising events" from Movie Mondays. It's brilliant! Make sure you subscribe to the Free Movie Mondays as well. Programme guide Advertising – If you have a programme booklet for the day, look...

Proper management of the fundraisers job means: keeping in touch with the work of the organization, the person should be in regular touch with the field, setting targets and monitoring progress, access to information, training and meeting other fundraisers and finally free time to think. The principles of fund raising in the organization is discussed below You have to ask for fund as well as authority, one of the principle of fundraising in the organization you have to ask for fund because if you do not ask no one knows that you have problem of fund for carrying out programmes or activities and for local or community fundraising you have to get permission to carry out the fundraising from different authorities that is Government authority, donors, partners, beneficiaries and other stake holders to gain support. Personal approach, the more personal your approach is, the better, for example asking someone face to face is better than; telephoning, which is better than; writing a personal letter; which is better than; giving a presentation to a group of people, better than; putting out a request on the internet. Many fundraisers prefer to send letters because sometimes it is the only way, however, its not the most effective especially when compared to; a meeting at your project when a donor can see your work and talk...

...find another Harvard MBA that wanted to work in customer service. Donna took advantage of every opportunity with to advance at Apple through her direct and hard-nosed style. Donna’s individual performance was impressive. She was able to deliver results and her groups performed well on key metrics. Apple was the perfect place for Donna since being a young company light on formality that underwent frequent reorganizations. Apple’s fast growth, loose organization, and corporate culture allowed Donna to make decisions “above her pay grade” and thus demonstrate her ability to perform at higher levels of responsibility. Place yourself in Dubinsky’s position. Why did she respond the way she did to the JIT proposal? Donna could never understand why the JIT proposal was even being discussed. She didn’t see any problems in the distribution area, and thought this was a cost cutting measure by Jobs because the Mackintosh division was underperforming. Donna never understood why the reins had been taking from her hands in the first place and given to the taskforce. Donna viewed this as a direct attack on her job and remarked “I didn’t know why there should be a taskforce at all. Distribution’s our job”. In her mind everything was working so well. There was no problem to solve. What do you think she should have done differently and why? Be specific....

...Grant Proposals It doesn’t matter if the business is just an agency, organization, for profit or non-profit they need money to operate. Profit companies focus on getting their funding through revenues and interest-bearing loans. Non-profit companies depend on grants, loans, and public generosity. It is a must to understand that non-profit agencies are businesses too and they also need a way to pay for their expenses. Writing grants is the way an agency finds funding. Either an employee professional grant writer or having administrative personnel to write the proposals, they then submit them for review to potential donors. Writing grants proposals is far from an easy to deal with. There are deadlines, awareness of what programs a funder is looking to invest their time and money into. Details for the application are an important part to writing a grant. Some are short and don’t require much information, while others require detailed description of the program. This is the grant writer’s priority to make sure that it meets requirement and all the information that is needed is there. The primary point to a proposal is that is to get their program out there and to make it clear and honest picture of the organization project for those funding and in general. The writer must convince the review committee that their program is the best to choose.

...“Disclosure of Certain Contingency Losses” Exposure Draft Critique Contingencies refer to existing conditions, situations, or sets of circumstances involving uncertainty as to possible gains or losses to an entity that will ultimately be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur (ASC Glossary). The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an exposure draft in July 2010 relating to additional disclosures relating to certain loss contingencies. FASB argues the necessity of this proposal arises from concerns of investors and other financial statement users relating to disclosures about loss contingencies under the existing guidance. Proponents argue that existing guidance does not provide adequate information to assist users in assessing the likelihood, timing, and magnitude of future cash outflows associated with loss contingencies (Exposure Draft, 1). Although the exposure draft intends to improve financial statement transparency, the balance between “issuing an improved standard must be maintained against possible prejudicial impacts that could adversely affect a company and its investors” (pwc.com) The first issue of the exposure draft relates to amounts that must be disclosed based on expert testimony. The exposure draft proposes the requirement of disclosing estimated amounts of reasonably possible and remote losses based on the testimony of an expert witness (Chadbourne and Park LLP). This disclosure is flawed and may be misleading...

Once all sections of the RFP have been written and approved, the CO will post the resultant RFP to FedBizOpps for any and all contractors of interest view the RFP in full details. If FedBizOpps is not available, the CO may email the RFP out to Offerors identified in its market research. Once the RFP has been posted, the CO should allow companies enough time to propose responsively to the RFP- which could be from 15 to 45 days depending upon the size and complexity of the requirement. During this time, the CO should answer any questions that all Offerors may have regarding the RFP. This should be done in writing but can also be done in an open forum such as a pre-proposal conference. Once all questions have been answered, the CO should post these questions and answers on FedBizOpps for all Offerors to see and if needed, amend the RFP. The process from the seller’s point of view begins once a notice is synopsized on FedBizOpps. After the requirement is actually posted on FedBizOpps, the seller should review the entire RFP and then choose if they want to propose or not. Depending upon what the seller believes his competitive chances are, a decision should be made to propose responsively to the requirement. At this time, the seller should review the RFP again and any amendments to fully understand the needs...
