Proposal Outline for “Charity Event Helping the homeless “Giveaways”
Executive Summary– Homelessness is a huge issue in San Francisco Bay Area as well as the United States as a whole. Unfortunately, there are approximately 600,000 Homeless in America alone. Our team leader Bryan has requested ways to potentially fundraise for homeless and create ideas for a solution to homeless. His request includes different methods such as researching and fundraising. To create these ideas a basic knowledge on homelessness was needed. This included what it was like to be homeless and how some people became homeless. After gaining some knowledge of homelessness it was necessary to find ways to both raise awareness for homelessness as well as ways to fundraise for our non-profit organization’s Fund.
Problem – a brief statement of the problem or need (one to two paragraphs)
The homeless need food, drinks, and bath and body products and we will hold a charity event that will cater to their needs.
Solution – a short description of the project that includes what will take place, the benefit, how and where it will operate / work, for how long and who will staff it (one to two paragraphs)
We’ll collect donations (food, drinks, bath and body products) and purchase water bottles.
Funding requirements – an explanation of the amount of money required for the project and future funding plans (one paragraph)
The Salvation Army, The San Francisco Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing are who we are planning on getting funds from. We’ll be collecting essential donations.
Organization and its expertise -name, history, purpose, activities and capacity to carry out the proposal(one paragraph)
“Giveaways” is a charity event held to cater to the homeless. It will be held in neighborhood parks. Donations of food, drinks, and hygiene products will be given away. Our team of volunteers will help make this work. With some funding from the Salvation Army and the SF Dept. of Homelessness and Supportive housing, we hope to carry out these good deeds.

-Provide hope (i.e. don’t just talk about how bad run-off from development, emphasize what can be done about it)
-Put a human face on it, provide real life examples and emphasize the needs of those served
We need funds, donations, equipment, volunteers to successfully cater to the homeless.

What types of measures -qualitative or quantitative? Remember that success is not just completing a list of activities…what is the impact of the activity on achieving the objectives? Who will measure success?
OSustainability – Since funders rarely want to make a long term commitment to one organization, they want to know that the project will attract other funders. Evidence of current funding (for larger projects) is helpful and may be requested.
