• A Study on Foundation Fund Raising
Partner Organization: China Donors Roundtable
Project Duration: 2014 - 2017
Project Status: Completed
There has been increased discussions about the public welfare value chain in recent years, in particular, foundations funded through fund-raising are increasingly being accepted. At the same time, the relevant government departments have been encouraging foundations to organize more fund-raising projects. However, many foundations continue to struggle in this aspect. The Social Resources Institute conducted an eight-month long survey on the existing fund-raising landscape in China and with the results of the survey, created an initial fund-raising framework. Some of the key outcomes of the survey is the survey report - a handbook on effective fund-raising methods in China, a plan to promote fund-raising in the medium term and immediate term goals. This study hopes to improve the fund-raising landscape and capabilities in order to raise the social value of foundations.
The Beijing Yifang Foundation, together with the Narada Foundation, the Macau Tong Chai Charity Association and the Zhenro Foundation jointly funded the study.
