POWER UP
Identify if you need funds to deliver your goal, source in-kind donations, and set up a fundraising plan if needed. Before starting to fundraise we encourage you to explore if you can get these items donated. Often the most successful teams are those that managed to source most equipment required for projects for free. Once you have worked out what you need to buy and cannot get via donations, this creates a target for you to fundraise. You should then decide what activities you want to do to raise funds. Most projects can be implemented with very little, if any, funding.
Please note, you should NOT have fundraising as the main target/goal, instead you should be focused on tackling an issue that you can have a direct impact on.
