A fundraising brief with one funding question still open.

Help prepare the next reading pilot

• Proposed: six weekly sessions for 20 learners.
• Campaign goal: USD 1,200 toward learner materials and venue costs.
• Venue and launch date are awaiting approval.

What the previous pilot shows

• 18 learners attended at least one session.
• Six sessions were delivered.
• No learning-improvement assessment was collected.

Before the appeal reaches donors

• Finance reviewer checks permitted uses of each funding source.
• Fundraiser approves wording, consent and stewardship.
• A USD 1,200 goal is not secured income; the current budget gap is USD 300.

Resolve the campaign target before outreach

• The stated purpose is learner materials and venue costs. Under this allocation, materials are covered and USD 100 of venue cost remains unfunded.
• The USD 200 orientation gap is outside that stated campaign purpose.
• The sources do not explain a USD 1,200 target. Finance and fundraising staff must justify or revise the target and permitted uses.
