Each office should have an income plan for at least three years which includes a range of activities, including fundraising.

• Most organisations with members have a membership fee called a subscription or membership fee.
• You can charge a fee for some or all of the services you provide. You can do this on a sliding scale of affordability.
• You can have public fundraising events, such as raffles, parties or suppers, cake or jumble sales, fairs, and so on.
• You can ask for donations of money or things (for example office equipment, or items to be prizes for fundraising events) from religious bodies, businesses or other organisations.
• You can approach large local and international funders as well as government. To do this it will be necessary to draw up a funding proposal.
