CRITERIA
ALTRUICITY will be accepting four Jewish day schools to participate in the Fundraising Guarantee Program for the 2014-2015 school year. Each school will receive hands-on fundraising support that includes Fundraising Strategy, Marketing Strategy, Project Management and Database Support.
Our accepted schools will be guaranteed the peace of mind that they will raise a minimum of new funds at least equal to their annual investment in our services or will be reimbursed the difference.
Please review the following criteria for participating schools. We invite you to submit the brief application on our Contact Us page.
PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT
Head of school must be willing to participate in occasional fundraising strategy meetings and attend face-to-face meetings with existing and prospective donors.
School must employ a development professional or a professional who designates at least 50 percent time to development efforts.
ROOM TO GROW
You know fundraising is critical to the sustainability of your school, but you do not have a development plan (or you have an incomplete one), or you have yet to begin implementation of your plan. Participating schools must be open to change – new ways of operating and new projects.
