Abstract
The paper discusses why non-profit organizations must define and segment its likely target market. The paper explains that most charities use a wide range of donation strategies, combining solicitations from large donors with mass mailings, form letters and events. The paper shows how casting a wide net is ideal, but even the most broad-based organization must have a clear target audience in mind. The paper explains that this allows the organization to make the use of limited resources effective when constructing a fundraising event.
From the Paper
"First of all, to define its donor base the not-for-profit must define its purpose as an organization. This, in essence is the product that the organization is 'selling.' The worthiness of the cause is the presumed reason for the donor's desire to give to the organization. The nature of the cause will also determine the type of appeal used for fundraising. Merely because a cause is worthy does not mean that it will automatically draw donations. The organization must define its core audience of donors. This is again much like one would market any product or service. Is the target audience of the fundraiser primarily young or old? Male or female? Or a mixture of both? Is its geographic base broad or narrow?"

From the Paper
"By the start of the 1990s, 200,000 Americans had already succumbed to the AIDS virus, and at least one million more are probably infected today. Unless a spectacular breakthrough comes soon, most of these people will be dead before the new millennium. This is the setting for the continuing battle against AIDS, a battle which has been going on for at least ten years now. Gay activist organizations, which had been little more than parade planning committees and social groups in the 1970s, became voices of rage and civil disobedience in the 1980s and 1990s. Less radical AIDS organizations such as the Human Rights Campaign Fund (HRCF) and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force (NGTLF) continued to work behind the scenes. Fund raising groups in the private sector, such as the American Foundation for AIDS Research (AmFAR) and AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA), were sponsored heavily by celebrities, including Elizabeth Taylor. Initially, however, there were two AIDS activist organizations responding to the crisis."

Conclusion: Suggestions for Improvement
From the Paper
"In conclusion as stated by Hope, CFOs can transform their roles and for organizations like AHA, it adds greater value (Hope, 2006, page 104). The AHA CFO needs to embrace being a freedom fighter, analyst and adviser, architect of adaptive management, warrior against waste, master of measurement, regulator of risk, and more importantly a champion for change (Hope, 2006, page 3). Nevertheless, there has to be balance for these activities, since the CFO has to focus on activities that increase the marginal value in research and upholds the mission of AHA."

Objective
Fund raising - Reflection on Requirements of Fundraising for Participation
Oregon State Park and Recreation Master Plan
From the Paper
"Fundraising has traditionally been a part of children's participation in extracurricular activities such as youth sports. In fact, there has never been a question of whether fundraising would take place or not as it is simply a given or assumed as part of the youth sports participation process. Fundraising may be in the form of selling candy bars, calendars, or raffle tickets. Fundraising may also take the form of bake sales, marathon runs with sponsors and even sponsored bike rides with the sponsor paying the participant per mile that recorded covered on the bicycle during the ride. Fundraising is an inherent part of youth sports and other extracurricular activities and has been for a very long time. Fundraising takes place for reasons that are clearly good reasons. First, participation in extracurricular activities or youth sports requires that each child have a uniform, shoes, safety-gear, and other various items that are required for same and healthy participation in the youth sport or activity. Many children come from families that have several more children who also participate in youth sports or extracurricular activities."
