Generating Funds for Your Volunteer Program: The Mindset and Methods
by Betty B. Stallings


This is a landmark article, in that it tackles a critical subject rarely presented in depth:  what it takes to raise money to support volunteers and the infrastructure of a volunteer program.  As the title says, noted trainer and author Betty Stallings covers both the attitudes necessary to fundraising success and a wide variety of ideas for finding or generating adequate funds.  Included are:

  • Reasons why it is a challenge to raise money for a volunteer program.
  • How to develop a strong case for support – specific “talking points.”
  • Moving from begging to marketing.
  • Visualizing success.
  • Suggested methods of raising resources for your volunteer program, including donations from current volunteers, outreach to corporations and foundations, special events, gifts in honor of volunteers, and other creative approaches.
