Search for Organizations that Support School Building Projects

Status: In progress
Time needed: 
Two weeks or more
Step: 
1

For this task, we are seeking volunteers to assist us with conducting Internet research. We need your assistance to help us identify different organizations around the world (and in Cameroon) who provide financial support for building projects such as ours.

We intend to work from this list to begin making contacts with the organizations identified in hopes that financial support can be secured to build the additional classrooms onto the school.

Dear Francis,

I think these are excellent contact information available with us. We need to finalise how we are planning, what we have done so far, how much money we need and until when we need assistance and etc., Then with appropriate documentations we need to approach these organisation.
My concern at this point is that we need to get a rough estimate of the cost of the whole building and a project plan. With this we should be able to proceed to these organisations.

Our stages 1 and 2 are not finished and it seems our volunteer list is really thin.

May be we will try to catch up some time during the weekends and discuss on how to proceed.

Thanks

Velan,

These are very good points you make I think.

Such a document can then be used to present to potential funding organisations as a way of outlining the vision for the project.

Some organisations may have specific procedural requirements or need a particular form of documentation, and it may be worth making some preliminary contact to assess such needs. They may also have suggestions about the process for starting up a project and seeking funding.
