Membership Strategy

Project details

What we need
  • A Membership Strategy document of 2-4 pages, including analysis of the Organization’s current membership program, step-by-step guide to a new or improved program, growth goals and creative outreach strategies
Additional details

We have a failed Ambassadors for Independence Giving Club that we would like to evolve into more of a Volunteer/Giving/Engagement Club. We already have a core group of people who would likely be involved, but we need help with design and execution. Our development committee would also like to explore a young professionals group as a potential component.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a loose program concept & materials from our failed program, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have staff support, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,848 , allowing us to potentially invest in staffing to implement this project, resulting in increased organizational capacity and philanthropic support.

Community engagement is our greatest opportunity to build capacity and increase philanthropic support. We have a group of individuals interested in supporting Paraquad, but we need a better system for utilizing their skills and interests, while increasing their commitment and potential financial support.
