We've written a business plan for SACDS. This plan contains three projects and a 'general' part. (housing, management, etc)
Are you good with numbers? Have you ever made a budget before? Assist Sabina in getting the budget right, so we can finalize the business plan.

Hi Truman,
what about if we make start up (set up) budget and operational budget seperately?
In my opinion, set up budget is one time cost and operational budget can be made for 12 months.
hoping to hear your opinion.

I have looked at the proposal and the attached budget . My comments are that even if I have not read your proposal in detail, it does not seem convincing to the donor. I may have to help you make it persuasive to attract some donors. My ask is how soonn do you want the task done?

Hi Sabina,
I may be able to assist with the budget. What is the current status of this task? Also, is there a revised dateline? Thanks. Sumitra.
Hey Sabina,
Now as l could ask how far have you gone with the budget because one could say you can now revise here and there
so please tell out where things have reached as per now
May God be with you
Dear Norman and Sumitra,
We have worked several times in budget but could not getting appropriate format.
In our business plan, we have developed different
programs and we need budget seperately for each program. In wiki there are some estimated cost too.
Here attached a new budget format for child care centre.
If you have any appropriate format for budget which could be suitable according to the programs to submit proposal , please post it.
Also if you can develope any budget , that would be great help.
Please refer to the business plan.
regards
Sabina
Thanks Sabina. I've started looking at it already :). Will be in touch.
Hi Sabina.
The budget f'work provided by you was appropriate, however, I have removed the "operating revenue" section, as I believe that this is not necessary for the project. I've developed an improvised start-up and operating budget frameworks for all 3 programs. In addition, I've also created a consolidated start-up and a consolidated operating budget framework for this project. (There are 8 worksheets altogether). All the worksheets are formula driven, so all you have to do is update the individual costs (in RS) only. Everything else, including the consolidated budgets are then automatically updated. :).
We can always add more line items if necessary, so don't worry about that.
Another important point ia that some costs will have to be shared b'w the 3 programs, such as, rental. When updating the budgets, we must make sure that these types of costs are approriately allocated, otherwise, we may double count them.
Once you have updated the worksheets with the appropriate costs for each item, I will be happy to review the worksheets again for you. Thanks. Sumitra.
That's brilliant, Sumitra! Thanks so much for your help - budgets always need special attention and someone who really knows what they are doing ;)
Best, Angelika

Dear Neighbors,
I did see the website www.kiva.org, but think it is meant for people doing business and wanting loans to uplift themselves.Our work is voluntary, it is not for profit or we don't intend to get pay for it.If we take a loan to support our project(s) that means that we will have to pay in the longrun.
I stand to be corrected, but think loans are meant to be pay back.
Peace!
