Fund Raising Project Selection Summary
When presented with options to get involved with or take on a company must go through
a process to determine the best option to choose. Choosing the right option is just as important as
completing the project itself so it is important to evaluate using an approved process. At the
completion of the evaluation process there will be a clear priority associated with each option
and give an answer to which option to choose.
Evaluation Results
There are six options that I evaluated to determine the priority of the projects. There were
a certain about assumptions that I needed to draw to get to an evaluation that I could put tangible
answers to. First to be evaluated are the must haves of the project as those are the things that
cannot be compromised. By evaluating the must haves first, I could get a clear picture of the
projects ability to meet the requirements and then I could look at the wants.
The wants are items that would be nice to accomplish but are not necessary to success.
The wants are important in evaluating projects because they can sweeten the options choices
after the musts are met. The projects that meet the must haves may or may not meet the wants
and evaluating the wants can help narrow down the options to help make the decision easier. The
wants are a wish list to meet the mission and goal of the organization while taking on a specific
project. Projects that are meant to raise money for charity are stricter because more money needs
to go to the charity and less money needs to be spent on the actual raising of funds.
Conclusion
The decision to take on a project and the decision of what project to take on is very
important. To make the decision is a process with many steps and many deliverables are needed
to make an informed decision. This document addresses just one of those process steps; the

evaluation process. In the accompanied document, I have ranked the projects based on the musts
and wants to come up with the list of project prioritized. Based on the analysis I placed the
Hoops for Hope in the priority number one space.
