First Thought

Second Thought

Goal

• How much do you want to raise during the next 12 months?

• What are your priorities—what do you need the funds for?

Guiding Principles

• As you search for funds, what will guide you so you succeed?

• Level 1: Think of individual revenue streams

• Level 2: Think of your overall development plan.

Guiding Principles: Is the individual revenue stream…

Substantial—worth the time and effort?

Sustainable—annual, consistent, predictable?

Constraining—promote responsiveness to constituent needs?

Strenuous---unduly tax time and energy?

Progressive—have the chance to grow over time?

Guiding Principles: Is the overall development plan…

• Mission-Driven Does the grant or activity allow you to pursue your mission and top priorities or not?

At the end of each week, are you able to work on what you need to work on—or are you managing grants?

• Diverse Does it include 3 to 5 different types of revenue streams?

Will your Bonner Ship keep chugging along if one of these dry up?

• Assets Is there evidence that your plan builds upon and utilizes your assets and strengths?

Are you turning previously underutilized assets to those that give you a stronger foundation?
