Our community organization partnership is an essential aspect of
Project by Project and is carefully selected each year. The partnership
lasts eight months and is intended to give financial support, outreach
and marketing assistance, and provide both short-term and long-term
volunteers for the partner organization’s programs. The selection
criteria include mission, financial need, volunteer opportunities,
organizational size, and urgency of projects. PbP volunteers work
closely with our partner organization’s staff to develop a tailored
campaign that focuses on the organization’s immediate and long-term
needs and goals in the following areas:
Fundraising
PbP believes effecting change requires more than a good heart. Each
campaign therefore incorporates multiple fundraising components where
we seek to channel new capital to our partners' efforts.
Community Outreach
As part of our mission, we seek to reach out to the community at large
to effect change in the most efficient manner possible. Therefore
we tailor our service projects to enable all members of the community
to get involved as their time, skills, and interest permit. Projects
are designed in cooperation with our partner, usually in direct response
to a community need, and range from discrete one-day activities to
ongoing service commitments.
Public Awareness
We believe that change starts with the individual. To this end, initiatives
targeted at raising public awareness of important social issues play
a prominent role in the success of our campaigns.
